Overview

About 129 Wakefield Road

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

129 Wakefield Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Scissett, Huddersfield, Huddersfield (HD8 9HR). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.

At 73 m² it's 23.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (59 m² median across 30 EPCs). Across 1999–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £238,000 is 45.1% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£209/sq ft) was about 44.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2000.
