About Grove Cottage

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

Grove Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Burston, Diss, Diss (IP22 5TH). It has a recorded floor area of 168 m² (around 1812 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (November 2010) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 168 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2007–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.7% per year. Sold January 2022 for £620,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
