Local market context
2 Manor Cottages is a mid-terrace house in South Stainley, Harrogate, Harrogate (HG3 3NE). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
At 52 m² it sits well below the postcode median (305 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension and subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
