About 1 School Cottages
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 School Cottages is a semi-detached house in Farmborough, Bath, Bath (BA2 0AR). It has a recorded floor area of 214 m² (around 2303 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (March 2017) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76).
Today's modelled estimate of £647,000 is 16% below the 2017 sale of £770,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying.

At 214 m² the property is well over the postcode median (108 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in July 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

- 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 1 School Cottages. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
