The estimate for Flat 4 is modelled from its 47 m² EPC floor area, its 7 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL1 3BN. 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.

About Flat 4
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 4 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL1 3BN). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 506 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 47 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (47–63 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (28 versus a best of 77). Other recorded features include a balcony and notable views.

Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from October 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across the public record there are 7 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1995–2019, sale prices on this property compounded at 8% per year.

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 Flat 4 is modelled from its 47 m² EPC floor area, its 7 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL1 3BN. 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. 7 sales are recorded for Flat 4. 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 Flat 4 was lodged in October 2009 at band F and expired in October 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to Flat 4. 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 3BN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 4 is in council tax band A. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
