5 West View, Hopwood Lane, Halifax, HX1 3YA
About 5 West View
5 West View is a mid-terrace house in Halifax (HX1 3YA). It has a recorded floor area of 183 m² (around 1970 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since October 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 1996, a hold of 30 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. Today's modelled estimate of £153,000 sits 236.3% above the 1996 sale of £45,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£23/sq ft) was about 16.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
