Overview

About 10 Alton Road

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

10 Alton Road is a mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL4 6HX). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 46 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 33–157 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (74 versus a worst of 43). The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a C (score 74). The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average.

Held since August 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (119 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 is 36.5% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£172/sq ft) was about 25% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
