Overview

About 20 Chantry Waters

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

20 Chantry Waters is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wakefield (WF1 5ED). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2024) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (August 2011); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). Main heating runs on electricity. At 69 m² this is the 45th smallest of 79 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–107 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 79 units on file.

Today's modelled estimate of £109,000 is 35.5% below the 2008 sale of £169,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£228/sq ft) was about 26.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since February 2008 — that's 18 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.
