Overview

About The Cottage

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

The Cottage is a detached house in Plumtree, Nottingham, Nottingham (NG12 5NB). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2012) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 68), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 84 m² it's 18.4% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (103 m² median across 17 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2010.
