About Ivy Cottage
Ivy Cottage is a detached house in Attleborough (NR17 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft) and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 98), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since January 2007 — that's 19 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 £442,000 is 40.3% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£250/sq ft) was about 83.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 117 m² it's 25.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (158 m² median across 9 EPCs).
