Overview

About Digby Cottage

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Digby Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in North Thoresby, Grimsby, Grimsby (DN36 5RF). It has a recorded floor area of 181 m² (around 1948 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony. Period features are noted in the property record.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 sits 71.4% above the 2007 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£90/sq ft) was about 29.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 181 m² it's 24.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (145 m² median across 33 EPCs).
