Overview

About 16 Chantry Waters

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

16 Chantry Waters is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Wakefield (WF1 5ED). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2026) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (February 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. At 67 m² this is the 37th smallest of 81 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–107 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 81 units on file.

Today's modelled estimate of £108,000 is 20% below the 2007 sale of £135,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
