About Bellamy House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Bellamy House is a detached house in Heath, Wakefield, Wakefield (WF1 5SL). It has a recorded floor area of 238 m² (around 2562 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.

Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £880,000 is 25.7% above the 2008 sale price.

- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Bellamy House is modelled from its 238 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WF1 5SL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Bellamy House. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Bellamy House was lodged in May 2022 at band E and is valid until May 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to Bellamy House. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF1 5SL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Bellamy House is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
