18a, Clarence Road, St Austell, PL25 5NJ
About 18a
18a is a four-bedroom detached house in St Austell (PL25 5NJ). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2025) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since August 1995 — that's 31 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. Today's modelled estimate of £285,000 sits 442.9% above the 1995 sale of £52,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£46/sq ft) was about 54.4% below the postcode norm. At 105 m² it's 22.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (86 m² median across 14 EPCs).
