About Alexandra Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Alexandra Cottage is a semi-detached house in Hardwick, Aylesbury, Aylesbury (HP22 4DU). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (September 2013) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
