About 9 Lavinia Drive
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
9 Lavinia Drive is a semi-detached house in Plympton, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL7 1ZG). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 732 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £176,000 sits 528.6% above the 1998 sale of £28,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£38/sq ft) was about 79.1% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs).
