Overview

About 5 Garden Cottages

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

5 Garden Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Colnbrook, Slough, Slough (SL3 0LZ). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 sits 95.3% above the 2007 sale of £190,000.
