The estimate for Maydene is modelled from its 80 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WF8 3AJ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

Overview

About Maydene

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

Maydene is a semi-detached house in Darrington, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF8 3AJ). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 80 m² it sits well below the postcode median (139 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2002–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 is 17.4% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£281/sq ft) was about 46.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2012. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £242,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Maydene is modelled from its 80 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WF8 3AJ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for Maydene. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Maydene was lodged in February 2013 at band C and expired in February 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Maydene. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF8 3AJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Maydene is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
