Overview

About 16 Connaught Avenue

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

16 Connaught Avenue is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL4 7BX). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (August 2020) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 49 m² this is the 11th smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 26–312 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (42 versus a best of 75). Other recorded features include a balcony. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Most recent transfer: August 2022 at £105,000. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. At 49 m² it's 29% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (69 m² median across 26 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Across 2001–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £116,000 is 10.5% above the 2022 sale price.
