Overview

About 5a Highfields Court

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

5a Highfields Court is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Huddersfield (HD1 5NG). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. At 50 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 17 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–131 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since December 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (79 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2004–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £108,000 is 16.1% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£173/sq ft) was about 53% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 5a Highfields Court is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HD1 5NG. 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 5a Highfields Court. 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 5a Highfields Court was lodged in August 2019 at band C and is valid until August 2029. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 5a Highfields Court. 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HD1 5NG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5a Highfields Court is in council tax band B. 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.
