Overview

About 5 Cortland Avenue

It has a recorded floor area of 185 m² (around 1991 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2012 onwards. The latest certificate (August 2024) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (March 2012); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in December 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
