About 5 Baden Powell Crescent
5 Baden Powell Crescent is a semi-detached house in Pontefract (WF8 3QB). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 985 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since June 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £174,000 sits 74% above the 2009 sale of £100,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£102/sq ft) was about 30.5% below the postcode norm.
