It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1219 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2011) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67).

Method

How 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 The Cottage is modelled from its 113 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in GU5 0UY. 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 The 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 The Cottage was lodged in April 2011 at band E and expired in April 2021, 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. 2 applications are matched to The 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 28 stops listed are measured in a straight line from GU5 0UY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
The Cottage is in council tax band G. 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.
