About 4 Courtenay Manor

4 Courtenay Manor is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Torquay (TQ1 1UN). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. At 76 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (66–76 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2012. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 78).
