42 Baghill Lane, Pontefract, WF8 2HA

42 Baghill Lane is a semi-detached house in Pontefract (WF8 2HA). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since November 2000, a hold of 26 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. At 87 m² it's 17.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (106 m² median across 12 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £176,000 sits 232.1% above the 2000 sale of £53,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£57/sq ft) was about 57.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
