Overview

About 1 Carr Lane

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

1 Carr Lane is a two-bedroom detached house in Wakefield (WF2 6HJ). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Today's modelled estimate of £455,000 sits 81.3% above the 2015 sale of £251,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£159/sq ft) was about 26.1% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 147 m² it's 21.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (187 m² median across 17 EPCs).
