Overview

About 3 South Parade

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

3 South Parade is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wakefield (WF1 1LR). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 79 m² this is the 16th smallest of 21 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 42–98 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top.

Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 is 71.9% below the 2022 sale of £420,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.

At 79 m² it's 16.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (68 m² median across 20 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. 7 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include partial demolition and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Last sale on file: £420,000 in August 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
