About 5 Brooks Cottages
5 Brooks Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Carlton, Nottingham, Nottingham (NG4 1FW). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 2007 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £176,000 sits 117.3% above the 2007 sale of £81,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£114/sq ft) was about 23.4% below the postcode norm.
