Overview

About Bumble Cottage

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

Bumble Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Mannings Heath, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 6HY). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 2 certificates since November 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 32). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

It hasn't traded since April 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. At 155 m² it sits well below the postcode median (228 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2004–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £730,000 sits 62.2% above the 2011 sale of £450,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£270/sq ft) was about 74.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Bumble Cottage is modelled from its 155 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RH13 6HY. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for Bumble Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Bumble Cottage was lodged in October 2015 at band G and expired in October 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to Bumble Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RH13 6HY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Bumble Cottage is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
