Overview

About The Cottage

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

The Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Basingstoke (RG21 5NR). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1113 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£251/sq ft) was about 18.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in July 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years.
