Overview

About 3 Church Cottages

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

3 Church Cottages is an end-of-terrace house in Birdlip, Gloucester, Gloucester (GL4 8JH). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 888 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since February 2007 — that's 20 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £315,000 is 40% above the 2007 sale price.
