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

Orchard Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Cadnam, Southampton, Southampton (SO40 2NP). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 3-band jump.
