Overview

About 305 Wakefield Road

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

305 Wakefield Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Denby Dale, Huddersfield, Huddersfield (HD8 8RX). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since September 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1995–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 sits 83.1% above the 2017 sale of £77,000. At 57 m² it sits well below the postcode median (88 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in July 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
