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)Shepherds Lawn£799,950 · 21 Feb 2014

Shepherds Lawn, West Road

The attributed Co3 house dates from around 2020, so the 2014 transfer is a predecessor/site anchor rather than a like-for-like sale. Title continuity, retained fabric and build scope must be reconciled.

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.

Shepherds Lawn

Pool or spa

Publisher evidenceThe lower-ground lifestyle level is attributed as family room, games room, gym, sauna, secondary kitchen and pool access; cascading gardens and terraces face the Teise Valley.

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

Gardens and grounds

Publisher evidenceThe ground-floor plan revolves around a planted internal courtyard, with full-height glazing, chevron oak parquet, marble kitchen surfaces, four en-suite bedrooms with dressing rooms and direct garden access.

Practical questionWho maintains the gardens and grounds, what is included in the sale, and can you provide the maintenance schedule?

Energy and systems

Publisher evidenceCurrent syndication records show detached type, four bedrooms, six bathrooms, 7,209 sq ft, EPC C and Council Tax Band H.

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. Who installed the glazing, what access is needed for cleaning and repairs, and are warranties transferable?
  4. What evidence can you provide before a viewing to resolve: Official title number, UPRN, registered extent and access/covenant schedule?
  5. For Shepherds Lawn's advertised 4 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.
