8 Croft Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Knottingley (WF11 9BN). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in June 2000. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 74 m² the property is well over the postcode median (48 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £164,000 sits 241.7% above the 2000 sale of £48,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£60/sq ft) was about 45.1% below the postcode norm.
