Overview

About 5 Queens Road

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

5 Queens Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Lipson, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL4 7PJ). It has a recorded floor area of 270 m² (around 2906 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Today's modelled estimate of £525,000 is 30.3% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 25% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Method

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 5 Queens Road is modelled from its 270 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL4 7PJ. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 5 Queens 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 5 Queens Road was lodged in June 2016 at band D and expired in June 2026, 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. None is matched to 5 Queens 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL4 7PJ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
5 Queens Road is in council tax band E. 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.
