Hope Cottage is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Crayke, York, York (YO61 4TB). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1066 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2025) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since October 2013. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since June 2002 — that's 24 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £405,000 sits 145.5% above the 2002 sale of £165,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 20.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006.
