About 20 Wood View
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20 Wood View is a four-bedroom detached house in Birkby, Huddersfield, Huddersfield (HD2 2DT). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (111 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £281,000 sits 60.6% above the 2011 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£111/sq ft) was about 39.4% below the postcode norm. Last sold in August 2011, so it's been off the market for around 15 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.

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 20 Wood View is modelled from its 147 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HD2 2DT. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 20 Wood View. 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 20 Wood View was lodged in September 2014 at band C and expired in September 2024, 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. 1 application is matched to 20 Wood View. 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 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HD2 2DT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 20 Wood View is in council tax band D. 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.
