4 Boscastle Gardens, Plymouth, PL2 3TR
About 4 Boscastle Gardens
4 Boscastle Gardens is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL2 3TR). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 75 m² the property is well over the postcode median (48 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2006–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £156,000 is 35.7% above the 2009 sale price.
