Overview

About Bennett

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

Bennett is a detached house in Wakefield (WF1 5LP). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 525 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2009) returns a B (score 83), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 49 m² this is the 9th smallest of 14 units on EPC record in Bennett, where floor areas span 37–53 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.

Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £102,000 sits 353.3% above the 2009 sale of £22,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£43/sq ft) was about 42.6% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Bennett is modelled from its 49 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WF1 5LP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Bennett. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Bennett was lodged in May 2009 at band B and expired in May 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Bennett. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 21 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF1 5LP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Bennett is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
