Get startedWych Cottage is a detached house in Cutthorpe, Chesterfield, Chesterfield (S42 7AN). It has a recorded floor area of 170 m² (around 1830 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 1996, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 170 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £557,000 sits 207.7% above the 1996 sale of £181,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£99/sq ft) was about 50% below the postcode norm.
