About 1 Powderham Cottages

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

1 Powderham Cottages is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL7 1LR). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 3-band jump.
