Overview

About 15 West Parade Street

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

15 West Parade Street is a mid-terrace house in Wakefield (WF1 1RH). It has a recorded floor area of 149 m² (around 1604 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 149 m² the property is well over the postcode median (96 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 is 20.9% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£69/sq ft) was about 136.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 15 West Parade Street is modelled from its 149 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WF1 1RH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 15 West Parade Street. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 15 West Parade Street was lodged in February 2020 at band D and is valid until February 2030. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 15 West Parade Street. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF1 1RH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
15 West Parade Street is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
