About 34 Downham Gardens
34 Downham Gardens is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Tamerton Foliot, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL5 4QE). It has a recorded floor area of 117 m² (around 1259 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2013) returns a high B (score 86), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 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 117 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £265,000 is 35.9% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 18.8% below the postcode norm.
