Overview

About 14 Buttercup Close

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

14 Buttercup Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Upton, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 1ND). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and 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 May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 55 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 25 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£296/sq ft) was about 150.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: May 2023 at £175,000.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 14 Buttercup Close is modelled from its 55 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WF9 1ND. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 14 Buttercup Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 14 Buttercup Close was lodged in May 2014 at band D and expired in May 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 14 Buttercup Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF9 1ND, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
14 Buttercup Close is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
