Apple Tree Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Elstead, Godalming, Godalming (GU8 6DG). It has a recorded floor area of 175 m² (around 1884 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.
