About 8 Cobcroft Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Cobcroft Road is a mid-terrace house in Huddersfield (HD2 2RU). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1216 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 sits 91.3% above the 2021 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£66/sq ft) was about 20.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £80,000 in July 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

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 Cobcroft Road is modelled from its 113 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HD2 2RU. 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 8 Cobcroft 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 8 Cobcroft Road was lodged in January 2016 at band D and expired in January 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 8 Cobcroft 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 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HD2 2RU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Cobcroft 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.
