Overview

About West View

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

West View is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Looe (PL13 1AW). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 572 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. At 53 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across West View (53–72 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (48 versus a best of 65). Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (November 2010) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £143,000 sits 50.5% above the 2017 sale of £95,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£166/sq ft) was about 91.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. At 53 m² it's 23% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (69 m² median across 3 EPCs).
