About 1 Rodney Street
1 Rodney Street is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Plymouth (PL5 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
It hasn't traded since November 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 98 m² it's 18.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (83 m² median across 11 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £178,000 is 36.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£123/sq ft) was about 19.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
