Overview

About 7 Carew Grove

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

7 Carew Grove is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL5 3PD). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it D (April 2011); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 1997–2020, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £207,000 is 33.5% above the 2020 sale price. Most recent transfer: February 2020 at £155,000.

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 7 Carew Grove is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL5 3PD. 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 7 Carew Grove. 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 7 Carew Grove was lodged in October 2013 at band F and expired in October 2023, 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 7 Carew Grove. 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 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL5 3PD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
7 Carew Grove is in council tax band C. 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.
