Overview

About 5 Bridwell Road

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

5 Bridwell Road is an end-of-terrace house in Plymouth (PL5 1AA). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 39 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (39–133 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to C across 27 units on file. The latest certificate (June 2018) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 74).

Held since April 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £117,000 sits 1362.5% above the 1999 sale of £8,000.
