About 2 Thorpe Lodge Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Thorpe Lodge Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ellington Thorpe, Huntingdon, Huntingdon (PE28 0AP). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 94), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in April 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2000–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £573,000 sits 52.8% above the 2008 sale of £375,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 Thorpe Lodge Cottage is modelled from its 121 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PE28 0AP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 2 Thorpe Lodge Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Thorpe Lodge Cottage was lodged in December 2012 at band D and expired in December 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2 Thorpe Lodge Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. Schools and stops are measured in a straight line from PE28 0AP. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Thorpe Lodge Cottage is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
