About 16 Elm Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Elm Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Skelmanthorpe, Huddersfield, Huddersfield (HD8 9BH). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
