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

It has a recorded floor area of 210 m² (around 2263 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows a C (score 71). The rating has held steady at C across 4 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Poor. The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

At 210 m² the property is well over the postcode median (87 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 15 planning records sit against the property, 7 approved, 4 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Lawn Cottage is modelled from its 210 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in GU3 1BD. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for Lawn Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Lawn Cottage was lodged in April 2010 at band C and expired in April 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 4 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 15 applications are matched to Lawn Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 26 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU3 1BD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Lawn Cottage is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
