Overview

About 2 The Old Rectory

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

2 The Old Rectory is a mid-terrace house in Badsworth, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 1AF). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2010.

The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
