Overview

About Corner Cottage

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

Corner Cottage is a three-bedroom detached house in Croxley Green, Rickmansworth, Rickmansworth (WD3 3HX). It has a recorded floor area of 120 m² (around 1292 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2012) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£631/sq ft) was about 34.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £815,000 in November 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2025.
