How the estimate is made
The estimate for Etterby Cottage is modelled from its 179 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CA3 9QS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About Etterby Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Etterby Cottage is a detached house in Etterby, Carlisle, Carlisle (CA3 9QS). It has a recorded floor area of 179 m² (around 1927 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 179 m² the property is well over the postcode median (107 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £342,000 sits 375% above the 1996 sale of £72,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£37/sq ft) was about 74.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Etterby Cottage is modelled from its 179 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CA3 9QS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Etterby Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Etterby Cottage was lodged in May 2015 at band D and expired in May 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Etterby Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 16 schools and 1 stop listed are measured in a straight line from CA3 9QS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Etterby Cottage is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
