Overview

About 21 Forthvras

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

21 Forthvras is a semi-detached house in Illogan Downs, Redruth, Redruth (TR15 3XQ). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 61), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since April 1997, a hold of 29 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £250,000 sits 420.8% above the 1997 sale of £48,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£52/sq ft) was about 74.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
