About Old Revenue Building

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

Old Revenue Building is a mid-terrace house in Launceston (PL15 7AR). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2019) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Average; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

Held since May 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 55 m² the property is well over the postcode median (41 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £132,000 sits 306.2% above the 1998 sale of £32,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£55/sq ft) was about 55.2% below the postcode norm.
