1 Lemon Street, Halifax, HX1 4LJ

1 Lemon Street is an end-of-terrace house in Halifax (HX1 4LJ). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £123,000 sits 556% above the 1995 sale of £18,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£13/sq ft) was about 54.5% below the postcode norm. At 133 m² it's 15.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (116 m² median across 12 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2009.
