Overview

About Pine Cottage

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

Pine Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Diss (IP22 5SR). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

Held since December 2007 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £500,000 sits 50.4% above the 2007 sale of £332,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£249/sq ft) was about 28.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 124 m² it's 16.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (148 m² median across 13 EPCs).
