About 2 May Cottage

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

2 May Cottage is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bream, Lydney, Lydney (GL15 6LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 949 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2010) shows a G (score 4), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 24). Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from January 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £259,000 sits 661.8% above the 1996 sale of £34,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£36/sq ft) was about 80.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006.
