About 1 Crown Cottage
1 Crown Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Walpole St. Andrew, Wisbech, Wisbech (PE14 7JT). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1119 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (October 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
At 104 m² it sits well below the postcode median (238 m² across 5 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £202,000 sits 102% above the 2014 sale of £100,000.
