About Forest Cottage
Forest Cottage is a detached house in Kings Clipstone, Mansfield, Mansfield (NG21 9BY). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 657 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2020) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 107), a 3-band jump.
