Overview

About Edwards House

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

Edwards House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Devoran, Truro, Truro (TR3 6PA). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2020) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since February 2010. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Good to Very Good and main heating went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since October 2000, a hold of 26 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 £579,000 sits 279.7% above the 2000 sale of £152,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£115/sq ft) was about 52.9% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2008. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
