1 Star Cottages is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Rusper, Horsham, Horsham (RH12 4PR). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2020) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
Held since March 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £372,000 sits 112.6% above the 2007 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£164/sq ft) was about 47.1% below the postcode norm. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
