About Cornview Cottage
Cornview Cottage is a detached house in Lewdown, Okehampton, Okehampton (EX20 4PU). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.
