Overview

About Brook Cottage

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

Brook Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Almeley, Hereford, Hereford (HR3 6PX). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 103), a 6-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and attached land beyond the plot.

At 74 m² it sits well below the postcode median (148 m² across 10 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £271,000 is 17.8% above the 2024 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£289/sq ft) was about 19.3% below the postcode norm. Last sale on file: £230,000 in June 2024.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Brook Cottage is modelled from its 74 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HR3 6PX. 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.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Brook Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Brook Cottage was lodged in December 2014 at band G and expired in December 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Brook Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 7 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HR3 6PX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Brook Cottage is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
