About Daphne Cottage
Daphne Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in East Clandon, Guildford, Guildford (GU4 7SD). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1336 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. 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. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a G (score 18), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 39), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. 26 planning records sit against the property, 18 approved, 5 refused. Past consents include new windows, an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 124 m² it sits well below the postcode median (275 m² across 3 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,050,000 is 45.8% above the 2009 sale price.
