Overview

About 2 Ocean Court

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

2 Ocean Court is a mid-terrace house in Porthtowan, Truro, Truro (TR4 8AP). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1976-1982. The latest certificate (July 2019) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since December 2008. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot.

It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 19.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £193,000 is 43% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£299/sq ft) was about 34.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.
