A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 College Farm Cottages is a semi-detached house in Aldeby, Beccles, Beccles (NR34 0BD). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 893 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B.
