About 12 Peasecroft
12 Peasecroft is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Cottered, Buntingford, Buntingford (SG9 9QS). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2025) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in August 2021 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). Main heating runs on electricity. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
