The estimate for 1 Northgate Cottages is modelled from its 153 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HG3 3ER. 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.

1 Northgate Cottages is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Burnt Yates, Harrogate, Harrogate (HG3 3ER). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1647 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in August 2021 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £517,000 is 32.6% above the 2022 sale price. Sold January 2022 for £390,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
1 Northgate Cottages's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
