View Point Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Charlcombe, Bath, Bath (BA1 8DP). It has a recorded floor area of 141 m² (around 1518 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. Earlier certificates rated it A (September 2011); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). Main heating runs on electricity.
Untraded for 21 years, with the last transfer in January 2006. Today's modelled estimate of £695,000 sits 183.7% above the 2006 sale of £245,000. At 141 m² it sits well below the postcode median (212 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
