About The Orchard
The Orchard is a seven-bedroom detached house in Polperro, Looe, Looe (PL13 2RX). It has a recorded floor area of 287 m² (around 3087 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a G (score 1), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony, a conservatory, outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot.
At 287 m² the property is well over the postcode median (119 m² across 14 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 7 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. 6 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a conservatory and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. On the market in June 2012 and unlisted since — roughly 14 years. Today's modelled estimate of £1,207,000 is 27.7% above the 2012 sale price.
