About Compass Court

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

Compass Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Taunton (TA1 4PP). It has a recorded floor area of 93 m² (around 1001 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. At 93 m² this is the 9th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in Compass Court, where floor areas span 82–107 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (January 2024) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (January 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). Main heating runs on electricity.
