About 12 Kingsley Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
12 Kingsley Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Milnthorpe, Wakefield, Wakefield (WF2 7EB). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1117 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs). Last sold in December 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Across 2009–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £294,000 is 43.4% above the 2015 sale price.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 12 Kingsley Close is modelled from its 104 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WF2 7EB. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 12 Kingsley Close. 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 12 Kingsley Close was lodged in August 2011 at band E and expired in August 2021, 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 12 Kingsley Close. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF2 7EB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 12 Kingsley Close is in council tax band C. 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.
