Upper Highfield Farmhouse is a detached house in Thursley, Godalming, Godalming (GU8 6QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 212 m² (around 2282 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a G (score 7), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 2 certificates since January 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 44), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
11 planning records sit against the property, 8 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch, partial demolition and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 212 m² it's 29.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (164 m² median across 9 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs).
