About Blue Stone Cottage
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Blue Stone Cottage is a four-bedroom detached house in Sutton-On-The-Forest, York, York (YO61 1DP). It has a recorded floor area of 182 m² (around 1959 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. 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 and attached land beyond the plot. The latest certificate (August 2023) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.
At 182 m² the property is well over the postcode median (110 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 7 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory, partial demolition and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent and conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £670,000 is 34% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£255/sq ft) was about 32.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in June 2018 and unlisted since — roughly 8 years.

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 Blue Stone Cottage is modelled from its 182 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in YO61 1DP. 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 Blue Stone 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 Blue Stone Cottage was lodged in August 2023 at band E and is valid until August 2033. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 7 applications are matched to Blue Stone 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 2 schools and 27 stops listed are measured in a straight line from YO61 1DP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Blue Stone 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.
