About 7 Hillview Cottages
7 Hillview Cottages is a semi-detached house in Tuffley, Gloucester, Gloucester (GL4 0BS). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £324,000 sits 368.5% above the 1999 sale of £69,150. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£61/sq ft) was about 67.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2005. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 106 m² it's 17.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (90 m² median across 5 EPCs).
