About 1 Railway Cottages

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

1 Railway Cottages is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Catcliffe, Rotherham, Rotherham (S60 5SU). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since April 2010. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 109 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1995–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 19.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £146,000 is 44.6% above the 2008 sale price.
