About Paper Mill House
Paper Mill House is a detached house in North Cave, Brough, Brough (HU15 2LT). It has a recorded floor area of 261 m² (around 2807 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in April 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 261 m² the property is well over the postcode median (128 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £680,000 sits 209.1% above the 1999 sale of £220,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 54.5% below the postcode norm. 11 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
