How the estimate is made
The estimate for 20a is modelled from its 162 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL2 1BQ. 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 20a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
20a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL2 1BQ). It has a recorded floor area of 162 m² (around 1744 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 162 m² this is the 19th smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 26–411 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 27 units on file. Other recorded features include a basement. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
At 162 m² the property is well over the postcode median (108 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 13 years since the last transfer (August 2013).

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 20a is modelled from its 162 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL2 1BQ. 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 20a. 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 20a was lodged in May 2013 at band E and expired in May 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. None is matched to 20a. 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 41 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL2 1BQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 20a 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.
