About 2 The Croft

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

2 The Croft is a two-bedroom detached house in Badsworth, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 1AS). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1488 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 52).
