Overview

About 2 Bay View

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

2 Bay View is a semi-detached house in Looe (PL13 2BD). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £223,000 is 41.1% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£226/sq ft) was about 27% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
