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 £226,000 is 37.8% 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.

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 129 Wakefield Road is modelled from its 73 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HD8 9HR. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 129 Wakefield Road. 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 129 Wakefield Road was lodged in September 2014 at band D and expired in September 2024, 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. 1 application is matched to 129 Wakefield Road. 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 9HR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
129 Wakefield Road 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.
