Overview

About Croft Cottage

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

Croft Cottage is a two-bedroom detached house in Southfield, Burnley, Burnley (BB10 3RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (December 2015) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in December 2015 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 103), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and a conservatory.

At 100 m² it sits well below the postcode median (143 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £242,000 sits 202.5% above the 2016 sale of £80,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£74/sq ft) was about 60% below the postcode norm.
