Overview

About 3 Elm Cottages

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

3 Elm Cottages is an end-of-terrace house in Northchapel, Petworth, Petworth (GU28 9HR). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2015) shows a G (score 18), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 58), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on bottled lpg. The latest certificate is from June 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 2008 — that's 18 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. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £440,000 is 44.3% above the 2008 sale price.
