Overview

About Cotswold

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

Cotswold is a detached house in Bideford (EX39 4AL). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
