Overview

About 16 Arundel Street

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

16 Arundel Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wakefield (WF1 3LW). It has a recorded floor area of 202 m² (around 2174 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2022) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in May 2016 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). Other recorded features include a basement and a loft.

Held since September 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 202 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £253,000 sits 92.2% above the 2007 sale of £131,666.
