Flat 5, 12 The Crescent, Plymouth, PL1 3AB
About Flat 5
Flat 5 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL1 3AB). It has a recorded floor area of 35 m² (around 377 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. The home occupies a corner plot. At 35 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–64 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 7 units on file. The latest certificate (January 2018) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). Main heating runs on electricity.
At 35 m² it sits well below the postcode median (83 m² across 19 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £145,000 is 13.7% above the 2018 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£338/sq ft) was about 32.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 9 years since the last transfer (January 2018).
