How the estimate is made
The estimate for 8 Central Close is modelled from its 113 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HD2 1DB. 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.

About 8 Central Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Central Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Huddersfield (HD2 1DB). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Across 2009–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at -2.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £192,000 sits 102.1% above the 2014 sale of £95,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 27.7% below the postcode norm. Last sold in November 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. At 113 m² it's 25.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 12 EPCs).

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 8 Central Close is modelled from its 113 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HD2 1DB. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 8 Central Close. 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 8 Central Close was lodged in August 2015 at band D and expired in August 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 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 8 Central Close. 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 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HD2 1DB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Central Close 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.
