About Marina View

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

Marina View is a semi-detached house in Torquay (TQ1 1DW). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1219 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Last sold in June 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1998–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.8% per year.
