Get startedPrincelett Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Apse Heath, Sandown, Sandown (PO36 0JT). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1485 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2013. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 138 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £556,000 is 36.3% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£275/sq ft) was about 19.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
Recommended upgrades on file would lift this property by multiple EPC bands.
