Overview

About Garvinack Barton

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

Garvinack Barton is a semi-detached house in Tregavethan, Truro, Truro (TR4 9EP). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1775 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (August 2011) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 40). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 31 years, with the last transfer in October 1995. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 165 m² the property is well over the postcode median (113 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £704,000 sits 342.8% above the 1995 sale of £159,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
