Ley Cottage, Burnley Road, Dunnockshaw, Burnley, BB11 5PP
About Ley Cottage
Ley Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Dunnockshaw, Burnley, Burnley (BB11 5PP). It has a recorded floor area of 212 m² (around 2282 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 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. At 212 m² the property is well over the postcode median (139 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2002–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £555,000 sits 52.1% above the 2007 sale of £365,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£160/sq ft) was about 46.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
