Get started2 Briar Rose Cottages is a three-bedroom detached house in Foxhole, St. Austell, St Austell (PL26 7XD). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (August 2010); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 60). Main heating runs on bottled lpg. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
