The estimate for Rambler Cottage is modelled from its 99 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DN17 4AD. 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.

Rambler Cottage is a semi-detached house in Garthorpe, Scunthorpe, Scunthorpe (DN17 4AD). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (May 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £164,000 sits 368.6% above the 1996 sale of £35,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£33/sq ft) was about 77.4% below the postcode norm. At 99 m² it's 22.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (128 m² median across 17 EPCs).
Rambler Cottage's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
