About 19 Edgcumbe House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
19 Edgcumbe House is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL1 3HD). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. At 56 m² this is the 6th smallest of 32 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 49–88 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (January 2022) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since November 2011. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
Held since December 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 56 m² it's 22.2% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (72 m² median across 31 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £133,000 is 49.4% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£148/sq ft) was about 22% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 19 Edgcumbe House is modelled from its 56 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL1 3HD. 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 19 Edgcumbe House. 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 19 Edgcumbe House was lodged in January 2022 at band D and is valid until January 2032. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 19 Edgcumbe House. 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 34 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL1 3HD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 19 Edgcumbe House 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.
