Hillside Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Oving, Aylesbury, Aylesbury (HP22 4HL). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2021) shows an F (score 23), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in December 2016 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 66), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on lpg. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 69 m² it sits well below the postcode median (134 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). 6 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.6% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£727/sq ft) was about 118.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: December 2021 at £540,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
