About Apartment 2

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

Apartment 2 is a mid-terrace house in Heckmondwike (WF16 0JR). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band A. At 65 m² this is the 7th smallest of 9 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 47–65 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (68 versus a best of 78). The latest certificate (November 2019) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 is 97.5% below the 2017 sale of £4,576,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£6,540/sq ft) was about 5129.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 65 m² it's 27.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (51 m² median across 14 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 8 years ago, in December 2017.
