About 1 New Lodge Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 New Lodge Cottage is a detached house in Donnington Wood, Telford, Telford (TF2 7QN). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a G (score 2), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at G across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £289,000 sits 80.6% above the 2009 sale of £160,000.
