About White Cottage
White Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Great Holland, Frinton-On-Sea, Frinton On Sea (CO13 0ET). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1498 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 139 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 21 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. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at -0.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £495,000 sits 59.7% above the 2009 sale of £310,000.
