About 8 Chough Close
8 Chough Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Launceston (PL15 9JZ). It has a recorded floor area of 142 m² (around 1528 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2016) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Other recorded features include a conservatory. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 142 m² it's 18.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (120 m² median across 4 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £372,000 is 48.8% above the 2007 sale price.
