135a, Harehills Road, Leeds, LS8 5BW
About 135a
135a is an end-of-terrace house in Leeds (LS8 5BW). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 84 m² this is the 5th smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 39–245 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (July 2023) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (March 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68).
Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 84 m² the property is well over the postcode median (54 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).
