About Meadow Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Meadow Cottage is a two-bedroom detached house in Puttenham, Guildford, Guildford (GU3 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1002 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
Held since January 2010 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 10 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £544,000 is 47% above the 2010 sale price.

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 Meadow Cottage is modelled from its 93 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale 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. 1 sale is recorded for Meadow 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 Meadow Cottage was lodged in October 2008 at band E and expired in October 2018, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 10 applications are matched to Meadow 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
- Meadow Cottage is in council tax band E. 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.
