2 Irving Street, Halifax, HX1 3RY

2 Irving Street is an end-of-terrace house in Halifax (HX1 3RY). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 97 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 sits 490% above the 1997 sale of £20,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£19/sq ft) was about 78.5% below the postcode norm.
