Overview

About 2 Forthvras

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

2 Forthvras is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Illogan Downs, Redruth, Redruth (TR15 3XQ). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 683 sq ft) and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2009) shows a G (score 18), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1999–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.9% per year.
