About 37 Bradford Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
37 Bradford Road is a mid-terrace house in Wakefield (WF1 2RF). It has a recorded floor area of 197 m² (around 2120 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1996, a hold of 30 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. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 sits 258.2% above the 1996 sale of £67,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£32/sq ft) was about 75.1% below the postcode norm. At 197 m² it's 19.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (165 m² median across 16 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 37 Bradford Road is modelled from its 197 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WF1 2RF. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 37 Bradford Road. 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 37 Bradford Road was lodged in June 2014 at band E and expired in June 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 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 37 Bradford Road. 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 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF1 2RF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 37 Bradford Road is in council tax band B. 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.
