Overview

About 5 Bridge Cottages

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

5 Bridge Cottages is an end-of-terrace house in Newark (NG24 2ND). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in March 2016 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 84 m² it's 20% larger than the typical home in the postcode (70 m² median across 7 EPCs). Across 1996–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £198,000 is 34.7% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£163/sq ft) was about 43.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
