Overview

About 1 Highgate Avenue

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

1 Highgate Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lepton, Huddersfield, Huddersfield (HD8 0EE). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 804 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (December 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Untraded for 15 years, with the last transfer in February 2011. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 sits 104.6% above the 2011 sale of £87,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£108/sq ft) was about 35% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Highgate Avenue is modelled from its 75 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HD8 0EE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Highgate Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Highgate Avenue was lodged in May 2010 at band E and expired in May 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Highgate Avenue. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HD8 0EE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Highgate Avenue is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
