Overview

About 131 Cemetery Road

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

131 Cemetery Road is a mid-terrace house in Heckmondwike (WF16 9EH). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £142,000 sits 79.7% above the 2006 sale of £79,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£62/sq ft) was about 24.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
