About Marie Cottage
Marie Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bream, Lydney, Lydney (GL15 6LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 64), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Today's modelled estimate of £395,000 sits 66.3% above the 2016 sale of £237,500. Last sold in July 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
