Overview

About Heronshaw Cottage

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

Heronshaw Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Great Ouseburn, York, York (YO26 9SG). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G.

The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Heronshaw Cottage is modelled from its 155 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in YO26 9SG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for Heronshaw Cottage. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for Heronshaw Cottage was lodged in August 2013 at band D and expired in August 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to Heronshaw Cottage. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 12 stops listed are measured in a straight line from YO26 9SG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Heronshaw Cottage is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
