About Littlecroft

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

Littlecroft is a semi-detached house in Kingswear, Dartmouth, Dartmouth (TQ6 0DE). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. At 79 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 3 units on EPC record in Littlecroft, where floor areas span 70–98 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (69 versus a worst of 52). The latest certificate (April 2025) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in March 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good. Main heating runs on oil.

Untraded for 25 years, with the last transfer in July 2001. 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 £250,000 sits 317% above the 2001 sale of £59,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£71/sq ft) was about 78.1% below the postcode norm. At 79 m² it sits well below the postcode median (128 m² across 29 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 86% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2020.
