Overview

About 1 Ash Grove

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

1 Ash Grove is a four-bedroom detached house in Darrington, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF8 3AA). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 sits 51.7% above the 2015 sale of £233,300. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£293/sq ft) was about 52.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 74 m² it sits well below the postcode median (123 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in July 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
