About 2 Start Bay Heights
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Start Bay Heights is a semi-detached house in Strete, Dartmouth, Dartmouth (TQ6 0RU). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 769 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 1999, a hold of 27 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 £284,000 sits 234.1% above the 1999 sale of £85,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£111/sq ft) was about 48.5% below the postcode norm. At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (103 m² across 30 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
