2 Eden Avenue, Wakefield, WF2 9DJ

2 Eden Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Wakefield (WF2 9DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 166 m² (around 1787 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2025) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in February 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78). Other recorded features include a basement. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since November 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 166 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 31 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 sits 398% above the 1996 sale of £74,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£42/sq ft) was about 72.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
