Overview

About Sportsman Cottage

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

Sportsman Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Mellor, Stockport, Stockport (SK6 5LR). It has a recorded floor area of 180 m² (around 1938 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a C (score 74). When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89). Main heating runs on bulk wood pellets. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 180 m² the property is well over the postcode median (132 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.8% per year.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Sportsman Cottage is modelled from its 180 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in SK6 5LR. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for Sportsman Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Sportsman Cottage was lodged in March 2015 at band C and expired in March 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to Sportsman Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 9 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SK6 5LR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Sportsman Cottage is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
