How to read this comparison

Headline details are agent or publisher claims unless a source-backed fact is explicitly marked verified. Aveno interpretations and calculations are labelled separately. Unknown means evidence is missing, not that a property fails a check.

Recorded transaction (separate)Coombe Cottage£1,500,000 · 3 Jun 2011

Coombe Cottage, Bridge Road

Exact-address transaction, but the historic 225.49 m² record is only 39% of the current 575 m² record. It is land/predecessor evidence, not a like-for-like comparable.

Transaction source ↗A historical sale is not an earlier asking price; no price reduction is inferred.

The reality of ownership

Features can bring both enjoyment and ongoing attention. These observations identify what to investigate, not estimated bills or confirmed defects.

Coombe Cottage

Pool or spa

Publisher evidenceThe three-storey plan includes a 50-foot open-plan kitchen/living room, wraparound river balcony, garden-level leisure suite, indoor pool, cinema and self-contained guest or ancillary accommodation.

Practical questionWhat servicing, water treatment, plant replacement and winterisation does the pool or spa require, and can you provide service records?

Energy and systems

Publisher evidenceCurrent exact-address EPC-derived evidence records 575 m² / 6,189 sq ft, EPC D score 64 and an April 2026 lodgement; that current record supersedes the much smaller historic footprint for price-density analysis.

Practical questionCan you provide the current EPC, commissioning certificates, warranties and recent measured energy use?

Ask before you view

  1. What servicing, water treatment, plant replacement and winterisation does the pool or spa require, and can you provide service records?
  2. Who maintains the gardens and grounds, what is included in the sale, and can you provide the maintenance schedule?
  3. Which accommodation is approved for its advertised use, and are access, services and heating independent?
  4. What evidence can you provide before a viewing to resolve: Official title/UPRN bridge and the complete 26-record planning and Building Control history?
  5. For Coombe Cottage's advertised 5 bedrooms, which share a level with a bathroom and living space, and what steps are on the route from parking?

Occasional occupation: ask who checks this property while empty and what its services and insurance require.
