About 38 Waterloo Road
38 Waterloo Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Huddersfield (HD5 0AF). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2024) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot.
It hasn't traded since May 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £214,000 sits 50.7% above the 2009 sale of £142,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 16.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
