Rose Cottage, Huthwaite Lane, Blackwell, Alfreton, DE55 5HY

Rose Cottage is a semi-detached house in Blackwell, Alfreton, Alfreton (DE55 5HY). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 970 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 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 90 m² it sits well below the postcode median (193 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, partial demolition and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £193,000 is 36.9% above the 2009 sale price.
