Overview

About Butts Green Farm

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

Butts Green Farm is a detached house in Clavering, Saffron Walden, Saffron Walden (CB11 4RT). It has a recorded floor area of 262 m² (around 2825 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 39). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £997,000 is 30% below the 2022 sale of £1,425,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£504/sq ft) was about 75.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 262 m² the property is well over the postcode median (137 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 15 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 12 refused. Most recent transfer: November 2022 at £1,425,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
