Overview

About 3 Oak Cottages

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

3 Oak Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Compton, Guildford, Guildford (GU3 1JA). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (September 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump.

5 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 4 refused. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 66 m² it sits well below the postcode median (115 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £474,000 is 18.5% above the 2022 sale price. Most recent transfer: August 2022 at £400,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
