About 8 Beaufort Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Beaufort Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL5 1AR). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band A. At 39 m² this is the 4th smallest of 15 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–63 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in September 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2005–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 2.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £115,000 is 19.8% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£229/sq ft) was about 16.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 8 Beaufort Close is modelled from its 39 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL5 1AR. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 8 Beaufort Close. 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 Beaufort Close was lodged in April 2016 at band C and expired in April 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 8 Beaufort Close. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL5 1AR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Beaufort Close 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.
