About 8 Brea Road
8 Brea Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Rock, Wadebridge, Wadebridge (PL27 6LN). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1008 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 63), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since April 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 94 m² it's 20.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (118 m² median across 7 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £572,000 is 27.1% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£446/sq ft) was about 44.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
