About Alby Cottage

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

Alby Cottage is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Luckington, Chippenham, Chippenham (SN14 6PB). It has a recorded floor area of 179 m² (around 1927 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 179 m² the property is well over the postcode median (50 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.2% per year.
