It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold.

It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 6 sales are recorded for 5 Danes Cottages. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
