About 66a
66a is an end-of-terrace house in Torquay (TQ1 1DT). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2020) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 37 m² this is the 5th smallest of 7 units on EPC record in 66a, where floor areas span 29–54 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the bottom.
It hasn't traded since May 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £168,000 sits 52.7% above the 1999 sale of £110,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£276/sq ft) was about 109% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 37 m² it sits well below the postcode median (54 m² across 30 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
