Overview

About 42 Pennycross Park Road

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

42 Pennycross Park Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL2 3NW). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (71 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 2008–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £251,000 is 35.7% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 21.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2005.

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 42 Pennycross Park Road is modelled from its 102 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL2 3NW. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 42 Pennycross Park Road. 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 42 Pennycross Park Road was lodged in May 2009 at band E and expired in May 2019, 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. 1 application is matched to 42 Pennycross Park Road. 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 51 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL2 3NW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
42 Pennycross Park Road is in council tax band B. 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.
