Overview

About Box Cottage

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

Box Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Henstead, Beccles, Beccles (NR34 7LA). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1448 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory, outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since August 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2010, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £730,000 is 47.5% above the 2010 sale price.
