Overview

About 17b

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

17b is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Plymouth (PL5 2EG). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, lighting went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

Across 2012–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 50.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £184,000 sits 71.2% above the 2013 sale of £107,500. Last sold in February 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
