About Brook House
Brook House is a three-bedroom detached house in Colne, Huntingdon, Huntingdon (PE28 3NL). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
At 127 m² it sits well below the postcode median (188 m² across 7 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. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in September 2016 and unlisted since — roughly 10 years. Across 2010–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £401,000 is 35.9% above the 2016 sale price.
