About 578 Heaton Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
578 Heaton Road is a semi-detached house in Bradford (BD9 4DQ). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 137 m² the property is well over the postcode median (81 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £165,000 sits 135.7% above the 2013 sale of £70,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£47/sq ft) was about 44.8% below the postcode norm. Last sold in April 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 578 Heaton Road is modelled from its 137 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BD9 4DQ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 578 Heaton Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 578 Heaton Road was lodged in December 2015 at band E and expired in December 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 578 Heaton Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 50 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BD9 4DQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 578 Heaton Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
