About 1 White Lane
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 White Lane is a mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL1 2LP). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 345 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a G (score 20), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (July 2009); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 42), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 32 m² this is the 4th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 19–123 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (20 versus a best of 80).
It hasn't traded since September 1998, a hold of 28 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. At 32 m² it's 17.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (39 m² median across 7 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £123,000 sits 707.4% above the 1998 sale of £15,234. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£44/sq ft) was about 81% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 White Lane is modelled from its 32 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL1 2LP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1 White Lane. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 White Lane was lodged in August 2009 at band G and expired in August 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 1 White Lane. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL1 2LP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
