About 344 Batley Road

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

344 Batley Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wakefield (WF2 0AW). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.
