About The Cottage

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

The Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Huttoft, Alford, Alford (LN13 9RT). It has a recorded floor area of 151 m² (around 1622 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2009) shows a G (score 13), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from December 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings.
