Overview

About Belvedere House

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

Belvedere House is a detached house in Torquay (TQ1 1BG). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1400 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 44). The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 130 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in Belvedere House, where floor areas span 69–163 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (36 versus a best of 63).

Held since November 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 130 m² the property is well over the postcode median (69 m² across 36 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £205,000 is 36.7% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£107/sq ft) was about 22.9% below the postcode norm.
