About Highmeadow Cottage
Highmeadow Cottage is a detached house in Buckholt, Monmouth, Monmouth (NP25 5RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 173 m² (around 1862 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since April 2001, a hold of 25 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £436,000 sits 177.7% above the 2001 sale of £157,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
