Overview

About 8 Wood Street

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Wood Street is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Longwood, Huddersfield, Huddersfield (HD3 4RD). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1475 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2022) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.

Held since February 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
