About Platts Green Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Platts Green Cottage is a detached house in Dial Post, Horsham, Horsham (RH13 8NX). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Today's modelled estimate of £617,000 is 17.7% below the 2025 sale of £750,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£536/sq ft) was about 123.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. A recent sale: £750,000 in May 2025.

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. 1 sale is recorded for Platts Green Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
