About 2 Dukes Chase
2 Dukes Chase is a four-bedroom detached house in Pontefract (WF8 1SJ). It has a recorded floor area of 142 m² (around 1527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 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. At 142 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £274,000 is 37% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£131/sq ft) was about 38.8% below the postcode norm.
