Overview

About 3 Gordon Cottages

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

3 Gordon Cottages is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Tamerton Foliot, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL5 4NS). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2022) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in August 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 90), a 2-band jump.

Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £141,000 is 23.1% above the 2007 sale price.
