The estimate for Rose Cottage is modelled from its 107 m² EPC floor area, the absence of a recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DH1 2LY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

Rose Cottage has no Land Registry sales on file, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands since registration began.
That can mean the property has never traded since the registry began publishing in 1995, was a new build that hasn't been registered yet, or is held in the same hands long-term.
Median price across the last 5 sales in DH1 2LY: £185,000 (2024–2022).

Rose Cottage is a detached house in Shincliffe, Durham, Durham (DH1 2LY). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
At 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2014. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
