About 1 Rippers Cross Cottage

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

1 Rippers Cross Cottage is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hothfield, Ashford, Ashford (TN26 1EW). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 857 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a G (score 14), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to F (score 25). Main heating runs on bottled lpg.
