Overview

About 13 Castle Syke View

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

13 Castle Syke View is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Pontefract (WF8 4LX). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since August 2009.

The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2007–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £197,000 sits 61.5% above the 2009 sale of £122,000.
