Overview

About 1 The Old Rectory

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

1 The Old Rectory is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Launceston (PL15 8AU). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1421 sq ft) and council tax band C. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 132 m² the property is well over the postcode median (95 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent and conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Last sold in January 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Today's modelled estimate of £279,000 is 32.9% above the 2014 sale price.
