About Limes Cottage

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

Limes Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Palgrave, Diss, Diss (IP22 1AW). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record.
