Overview

About 5 Cottage Mews

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

5 Cottage Mews is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL7 1HT). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 986 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a C (score 73). The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 2001–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £271,000 sits 66.3% above the 2009 sale of £163,000. At 92 m² it's 22.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 4 EPCs).
