About Horseshoe Cottage

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

Horseshoe Cottage is a two-bedroom detached house in Beesby, Alford, Alford (LN13 0JG). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump.
