Overview

About 19 Castle Hill

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

19 Castle Hill is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Wakefield (WF2 8YH). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since April 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £160,000 is 45.5% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£186/sq ft) was about 28.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
