Overview

About 83 Park Avenue

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

83 Park Avenue is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Kirkthorpe, Wakefield, Wakefield (WF1 5TQ). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a C (score 73). The rating has held steady at C across 5 certificates since January 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since July 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £148,000 is 28.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£178/sq ft) was about 67.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 60 m² it's 18.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (74 m² median across 12 EPCs).

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 83 Park Avenue is modelled from its 60 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WF1 5TQ. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 83 Park Avenue. 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 83 Park Avenue was lodged in May 2024 at band C and is valid until May 2034. 5 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 83 Park Avenue. 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 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF1 5TQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
83 Park Avenue is in council tax band A. 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.
