About Chantry Cottage
Chantry Cottage is a five-bedroom detached house in Smallwood, Sandbach, Sandbach (CW11 2XF). It has a recorded floor area of 290 m² (around 3122 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an F (score 22), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 60), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
