42 Howden Way is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Eastmoor, Wakefield, Wakefield (WF1 4PL). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 664 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
