Overview

About 16 Cottonfield Road

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

16 Cottonfield Road is a semi-detached house in Manchester (M20 4QW). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2014. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £346,000 sits 60.9% above the 2014 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£222/sq ft) was about 29.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in September 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
