Flat 1, 15 Rowley Road, Torquay, TQ1 4PX
About Flat 1
Flat 1 is a semi-detached house in Torquay (TQ1 4PX). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 646 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since August 2013. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 60 m² it sits well below the postcode median (118 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£217/sq ft) was about 60.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
