Overview

About 2 Wood End Cottages

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

2 Wood End Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bishop's Stortford (CM22 6BB). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 706 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

Held since October 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. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £330,000 sits 65% above the 2009 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£283/sq ft) was about 26.7% below the postcode norm. At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (148 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
