About Gwent Cottage
Gwent Cottage is a detached house in Bramham, Wetherby, Wetherby (LS23 6QT). It has a recorded floor area of 181 m² (around 1948 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2018) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 3-band jump.
Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £639,000 sits 59.8% above the 2009 sale of £399,950. 6 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused.
