About 1 Railway Cottages
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Railway Cottages is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Little Wymondley, Hitchin, Hitchin (SG4 7JP). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 710 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2023) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in April 2011 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
It hasn't traded since January 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area.
