Overview

About Yew Tree Cottage

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

Yew Tree Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Rowfant, Crawley, Crawley (RH10 4NG). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2026) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in September 2020 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a conservatory and attached land beyond the plot. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £661,000 is 20.2% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£521/sq ft) was about 47% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused. At 98 m² it's 21.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (125 m² median across 5 EPCs). Most recent transfer: May 2021 at £550,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
