About Stone Cottage
Stone Cottage is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Polebrook, Peterborough, Peterborough (PE8 5LS). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
At 128 m² the property is well over the postcode median (89 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in August 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Today's modelled estimate of £471,000 is 28.5% above the 2014 sale price.
