About Spring Bank Cottage
Spring Bank Cottage is a semi-detached house in Burley Woodhead, Ilkley, Ilkley (LS29 7AU). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 96 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £834,000 sits 54.4% above the 2007 sale of £540,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£523/sq ft) was about 195% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
