About 21 Pencantol

21 Pencantol is a four-bedroom detached house in Frogpool, Truro, Truro (TR4 8SQ). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2019) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump.

Held since December 2007 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm.
