Overview

About 20 Foxlands

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

20 Foxlands is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Torquay (TQ1 3RZ). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2014) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. When first surveyed in November 2013 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 100 m² this is the 28th smallest of 32 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 56–123 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the top.

It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 100 m² it's 22% larger than the typical home in the postcode (82 m² median across 31 EPCs). On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£232/sq ft) was about 16.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
