About 2 Red House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Red House is a semi-detached house in Wentbridge, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF8 3JP). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. At 78 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (78–143 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (39 versus a best of 61). The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 78 m² it's 26.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (106 m² median across 15 EPCs). Across 2015–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £192,000 is 12.9% above the 2022 sale price. Most recent transfer: March 2022 at £170,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 Red House is modelled from its 78 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WF8 3JP. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 2 Red House. 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 2 Red House was lodged in May 2013 at band E and expired in May 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 2 Red House. 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. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from WF8 3JP. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Red House is in council tax band E. 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.
