How the estimate is made
The estimate for 6a is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL2 1BU. 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 6a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
6a is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Plymouth (PL2 1BU). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 355 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 33 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (33–180 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 19 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72).
Untraded for 20 years, with the last transfer in January 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (78 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £118,000 is 24.2% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£267/sq ft) was about 109% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 6a is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL2 1BU. 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 6a. 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 6a was lodged in August 2019 at band D and is valid until August 2029. 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 6a. 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 1BU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 6a 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.
