Overview

About 19 Fairfax Drive

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

19 Fairfax Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontefract (WF8 1NU). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2013) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at -2.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £219,000 is 32.7% above the 2008 sale price.
