Overview

About 17 Beechcroft Road

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

17 Beechcroft Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Beacon Park, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL2 3JY). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in July 1997. 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 £285,000 sits 458.8% above the 1997 sale of £51,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£45/sq ft) was about 69% below the postcode norm.
