Overview

About 1 2

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

1 2 is a detached house in Pontefract (WF8 1HW). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (August 2016) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (June 2016); the latest reading is one band lower. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 3-band jump.

It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 is 21.6% above the 2008 sale price.
