About Polkirt
Polkirt is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Looe (PL13 1AZ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 78 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in Polkirt, where floor areas span 51–96 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £160,000 sits 88.2% above the 2013 sale of £85,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£101/sq ft) was about 44.4% below the postcode norm. Last sold in May 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
