Overview

About 2 Sefton Terrace

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

2 Sefton Terrace is a mid-terrace house in Halifax (HX1 5RE). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 5 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in March 2000. 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 £117,000 sits 515.8% above the 2000 sale of £19,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£20/sq ft) was about 72.3% below the postcode norm. At 88 m² it's 15.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (104 m² median across 17 EPCs).
