Overview

About 5 Bramble Close

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

5 Bramble Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Pontefract (WF8 4RT). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since June 2012. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 94 m² it's 22.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 6 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £258,000 is 35.8% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£188/sq ft) was about 21.2% below the postcode norm. Last sold in January 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
