About Ivan Cottage

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

Ivan Cottage is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Oxted (RH8 9JD). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 661 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2011) shows an E (score 50), 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 October 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 61 m² it sits well below the postcode median (205 m² across 12 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 1996–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £400,000 sits 100% above the 2012 sale of £200,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£303/sq ft) was about 28.1% below the postcode norm. Last sold in April 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
