About Brownlow Cottage

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

It has a recorded floor area of 240 m² (around 2583 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F.

Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An application is currently awaiting a decision.
