Overview

About 28 Pontefract Road

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

28 Pontefract Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Barnsley (S71 1AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 641 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a C (score 70). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £130,000 sits 51.2% above the 2016 sale of £86,000. Last sold in May 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
