30 Blackwood Grove is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Halifax (HX1 4RH). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2011); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2002–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £121,000 sits 53.2% above the 2008 sale of £79,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£64/sq ft) was about 43.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 114 m² it's 15.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (99 m² median across 31 EPCs).
