Overview

About 20 Buttercup Close

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

20 Buttercup Close is a detached house in Upton, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 1ND). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £189,000 sits 294.2% above the 1998 sale of £47,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£61/sq ft) was about 49.6% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 73 m² it's 18.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 25 EPCs).
