About 1 Mill Lane Cottages
1 Mill Lane Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Crayke, York, York (YO61 4TD). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2025) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. When first surveyed in November 2016 the rating was G, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
