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 31 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 £118,000 sits 381.6% above the 1995 sale of £24,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£33/sq ft) was about 43.3% below the postcode norm.
