Overview

About 15 Brighton Street

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

15 Brighton Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Wakefield (WF2 8TD). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 709 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 66 m² it's 18.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (56 m² median across 20 EPCs). Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 25.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £126,000 is 48.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£120/sq ft) was about 56.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
