Overview

About Old Post Office

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

Old Post Office is a two-bedroom detached house in Longdowns, Penryn, Penryn (TR10 9DL). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2024. The latest certificate (March 2025) returns an A (score 94), the top energy band on the EPC scale. When first surveyed in August 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, window efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff.

Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £155,000 is 34.8% above the 2008 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2006.
