About The Cottage
The Cottage is a five-bedroom detached house in Dunkerton, Bath, Bath (BA2 8PE). It has a recorded floor area of 213 m² (around 2293 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2024) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 3-band jump.

Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
Held since October 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £884,000 sits 53.7% above the 2007 sale of £575,000. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, partial demolition and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
