About Corner Cottage
Corner Cottage is a detached house in Badsworth, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 1AG). It has a recorded floor area of 156 m² (around 1679 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since March 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £471,000 sits 276.8% above the 1999 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£74/sq ft) was about 70.3% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 156 m² it's 23.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (126 m² median across 9 EPCs).
