242 Huddersfield Road, Halifax, HX3 0NS

242 Huddersfield Road is an end-of-terrace house in Halifax (HX3 0NS). It has a recorded floor area of 183 m² (around 1970 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2016. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since March 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 183 m² the property is well over the postcode median (63 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £292,000 sits 253.9% above the 2001 sale of £82,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£42/sq ft) was about 75.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
