14 Brighton Grove, Halifax, HX1 5SA

14 Brighton Grove is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Halifax (HX1 5SA). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (April 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since May 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 140 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £100,000 is 38.9% above the 2008 sale price.
