About Southview Cottage

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

Southview Cottage is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Freshford, Bath, Bath (BA2 7UJ). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (December 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86). Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

It hasn't traded since October 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £416,000 sits 57% above the 2008 sale of £265,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£277/sq ft) was about 18.1% below the postcode norm. At 89 m² it's 21.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (113 m² median across 10 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 70% of similar EPCs).
