Overview

About 1 Berkeley Cottages

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1 Berkeley Cottages is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL1 5QT). It has a recorded floor area of 188 m² (around 2024 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

10 planning records sit against the property, 9 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in August 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years. Today's modelled estimate of £459,000 is 45.7% above the 2013 sale price.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 Berkeley Cottages is modelled from its 188 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL1 5QT. 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 Berkeley Cottages. 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 Berkeley Cottages was lodged in February 2013 at band F and expired in February 2023, 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. 10 applications are matched to 1 Berkeley Cottages. 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 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL1 5QT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 Berkeley Cottages is in council tax band F. 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.
