Overview

About 8 Brentor Road

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

8 Brentor Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL4 9PS). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 71 m² this is the 11th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 64–137 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (77 versus a worst of 1). Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in April 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £142,000 is 27.9% above the 2019 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£145/sq ft) was about 22% 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 8 Brentor Road is modelled from its 71 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL4 9PS. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 8 Brentor 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 8 Brentor Road was lodged in February 2016 at band C and expired in February 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 8 Brentor 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 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL4 9PS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Brentor 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.
