Overview

About 5 Bryfield Cottages

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2021) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2011.
