About 3 Delacombe Close
3 Delacombe Close is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL7 4DU). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1206 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and a conservatory.
At 112 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1995–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£236/sq ft) was about 52.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold September 2022 for £285,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
