Overview

About 1 Elizabethan House

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

1 Elizabethan House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Totnes (TQ9 5BY). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (September 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 59), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
