About May Cottage
May Cottage is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Ramsgate (CT11 7QG). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 641 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since January 2008 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
