Overview

About 5 Sefton Terrace

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

5 Sefton Terrace is a mid-terrace house in Halifax (HX1 5RE). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 64), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2000 — that's 26 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. At 114 m² it's 26.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 17 EPCs).
