Overview

About 24 Ashbourne Drive

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

24 Ashbourne Drive is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontefract (WF8 3QZ). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 91), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £174,000 sits 52.6% above the 2009 sale of £114,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£286/sq ft) was about 21.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 37 m² it sits well below the postcode median (60 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
