About The Old Smithy

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

The Old Smithy is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Kingswear, Dartmouth, Dartmouth (TQ6 0DP). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C.

Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views.
