About 3c
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3c is an end-of-terrace house in Plymouth (PL1 4AE). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1950-1966. The latest certificate (March 2017) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in September 2015 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. Main heating runs on electricity. At 46 m² this is the 10th smallest of 25 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 25–179 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 25 units on file.
Across 2000–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £115,000 is 38.2% below the 2017 sale of £186,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£376/sq ft) was about 157.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 9 years ago, in February 2017.

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 3c is modelled from its 46 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL1 4AE. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 3c. 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 3c was lodged in March 2017 at band C and is valid until March 2027. 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 3c. 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 4AE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
