About 286 Bradford Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
286 Bradford Road is a mid-terrace house in Huddersfield (HD1 6LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1550 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2015. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).
It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 144 m² the property is well over the postcode median (78 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 23.9% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£87/sq ft) was about 49.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 286 Bradford Road is modelled from its 144 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HD1 6LQ. 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 286 Bradford 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 286 Bradford Road was lodged in October 2016 at band D and expired in October 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 286 Bradford 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 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HD1 6LQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 286 Bradford Road is in council tax band A. 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.
