Overview

About 28 Close Street

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

28 Close Street is an end-of-terrace house in Hemsworth, Pontefract, Pontefract (WF9 4QP). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 1995 — that's 32 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 £119,000 sits 385.7% above the 1995 sale of £24,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£33/sq ft) was about 42.7% below the postcode norm.

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 28 Close Street is modelled from its 69 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WF9 4QP. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 28 Close Street. 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 28 Close Street was lodged in October 2013 at band D and expired in October 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 28 Close Street. 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 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WF9 4QP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
