Overview

About 16 Trolvus Vean

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

16 Trolvus Vean is a four-bedroom detached house in Longdowns, Penryn, Penryn (TR10 9LT). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. The latest certificate (August 2020) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in October 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; 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 B (score 87), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since November 1998, a hold of 28 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 £416,000 sits 420.3% above the 1998 sale of £79,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£78/sq ft) was about 43.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
