About Woodlands Cottage
Woodlands Cottage is a detached house in Sutton Coldfield (B74 3AR). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 838 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). The latest certificate is from October 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 78 m² it sits well below the postcode median (515 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2001. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
