Overview

About Amberley Court

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

Amberley Court is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Torquay (TQ1 2NL). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 700 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 65 m² it's 16.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (56 m² median across 74 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). Across 2007–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 1.5% per year. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £130,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
