About Farley Green Cottage
Farley Green Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Albury, Guildford, Guildford (GU5 9EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 334 m² (around 3597 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
At 334 m² the property is well over the postcode median (173 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and solar panel installation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £2,071,000 is 16.7% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£493/sq ft) was about 22.3% below the postcode norm. Last sold in October 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
