About 1 Victoria Mews

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

1 Victoria Mews is an end-of-terrace house in Torquay (TQ1 4AG). 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 (May 2018) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in December 2017 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 94), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

It hasn't traded since April 1997, a hold of 29 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 £124,000 sits 552.6% above the 1997 sale of £19,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£48/sq ft) was about 64.8% below the postcode norm.
