About Devils Cottage
Devils Cottage is a mid-terrace house in Polperro, Looe, Looe (PL13 2RX). It has a recorded floor area of 150 m² (around 1615 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
