About May Villa

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

May Villa is a detached house in Carn Brea, Redruth, Redruth (TR15 3YJ). It has a recorded floor area of 142 m² (around 1528 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2018) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in March 2015 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while main heating dropped from Good to Average. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 142 m² it's 16.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (122 m² median across 6 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £377,000 sits 190% above the 2015 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£85/sq ft) was about 29.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in October 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
