About Flat
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat is a mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL2 1AL). It has a recorded floor area of 34 m² (around 366 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. At 34 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–99 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2022) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (June 2020); the latest reading is one band lower.
It hasn't traded since April 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £110,000 sits 388.9% above the 1996 sale of £22,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£61/sq ft) was about 66% below the postcode norm. At 34 m² it sits well below the postcode median (53 m² across 9 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 89% of similar EPCs).

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 is modelled from its 34 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL2 1AL. 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 Flat. 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 was lodged in July 2022 at band C and is valid until July 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 Flat. 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 38 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL2 1AL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Flat 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.
