Overview

About 55 Third Avenue

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

55 Third Avenue is an end-of-terrace house in Upton, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 1BP). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1998–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £145,000 is 34.3% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£136/sq ft) was about 49.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
