Overview

About 4 Charles Street

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

4 Charles Street is a semi-detached house in Wakefield (WF1 4PQ). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 68 m² this is the 22nd smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 40–80 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 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 68 m² the property is well over the postcode median (50 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 is 27.6% above the 2007 sale price.
