Overview

About 5 Highfield Rise

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

5 Highfield Rise is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Wakefield (WF2 0BX). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2001–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £198,000 sits 59.7% above the 2016 sale of £124,000. Last sold in September 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs).
