Overview

About Cloud Cottage

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

Cloud Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Elstree, Borehamwood, Borehamwood (WD6 3BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Other recorded features include outbuildings. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2002, a hold of 24 years that's notably long for the area. At 96 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1995–2002, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £635,000 sits 69.3% above the 2002 sale of £375,000.
