Overview

About 299 Old Wakefield Road

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

299 Old Wakefield Road is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Huddersfield (HD5 8AA). It has a recorded floor area of 44 m² (around 474 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 44 m² it sits well below the postcode median (70 m² across 8 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £106,000 is 41.3% above the 2007 sale price.
