About Robin Hill Cottage
Robin Hill Cottage is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Reedley, Burnley, Burnley (BB12 9DU). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 91). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in July 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). 11 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 6 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£379/sq ft) was about 151.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
