About 1 Oak Cottages
1 Oak Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Guildford (GU4 7PS). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1061 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in January 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£128/sq ft) was about 63.6% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include new windows and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
