About 256 Alder Street
256 Alder Street is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Huddersfield (HD2 1AX). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since March 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
