Overview

About Chapel Cottage

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

Chapel Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Limpsfield, Oxted, Oxted (RH8 0DT). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1383 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 57). The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £718,000 sits 259% above the 2008 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£145/sq ft) was about 60.7% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
