About 1 Elmer Cottages
1 Elmer Cottages is a four-bedroom detached house in Fetcham, Leatherhead, Leatherhead (KT22 9DH). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since March 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 173 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1995–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £754,000 sits 123.4% above the 2010 sale of £337,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£181/sq ft) was about 39.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
