About 22 Carmarthen Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
22 Carmarthen Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL4 9EW). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 63 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (63–147 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (August 2020) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in May 2010 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and window efficiency went from Poor to Good.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (122 m² across 24 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£229/sq ft) was about 107.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2007.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 22 Carmarthen Road is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL4 9EW. 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 22 Carmarthen 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 22 Carmarthen Road was lodged in August 2020 at band C and is valid until August 2030. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 22 Carmarthen 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 26 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL4 9EW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 22 Carmarthen Road is in council tax band A. 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.
