About Avoca Cottage
Avoca Cottage is a semi-detached house in Cadeby, Doncaster, Doncaster (DN5 7SL). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2018) shows a G (score 11), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 91), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on bottled lpg.
It hasn't traded since November 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £247,000 is 20.5% above the 2007 sale price.
