Overview

About 24 Beacon Drive

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

24 Beacon Drive is a detached house in Upton, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 1EF). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £182,000 sits 54.2% above the 2014 sale of £118,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£199/sq ft) was about 40.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (83 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Last sold in May 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
