Overview

About 7 Albany Drive

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

7 Albany Drive is a detached house in Huddersfield (HD5 9UR). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since March 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 109 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2006–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £244,000 is 43.5% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£145/sq ft) was about 16.5% below the postcode norm.
