Overview

About 55a

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

55a is a semi-detached house in Almondbury, Huddersfield, Huddersfield (HD5 8RX). It has a recorded floor area of 143 m² (around 1539 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 143 m² the property is well over the postcode median (75 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
