Overview

About 3 Valley Lane

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

3 Valley Lane is a three-bedroom detached house in Carnon Downs, Truro, Truro (TR3 6LP). It has a recorded floor area of 192 m² (around 2067 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good.

Across 2009–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £725,000 sits 68.6% above the 2015 sale of £430,000.
