Overview

About 15 Cottam Croft

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

15 Cottam Croft is a semi-detached house in Hemsworth, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 4HU). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
