About 12 Crown & Anchor Yard
12 Crown & Anchor Yard is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontefract (WF8 1DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2023) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since March 2013. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since September 1998, a hold of 28 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. Today's modelled estimate of £147,000 sits 748.5% above the 1998 sale of £17,325. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£17/sq ft) was about 81.6% below the postcode norm.
