Get startedOld Bridge Cottage is a detached house in Cottingley Bridge, Bingley, Bingley (BD16 1NB). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1228 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 50).

Held since May 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £358,000 is 43.2% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£204/sq ft) was about 33.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
