About The Cottage
The Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Egerton, Ashford, Ashford (TN27 9DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 153 m² (around 1648 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
