Overview

About 20 Molesworth Road

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

20 Molesworth Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plympton, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL7 4NT). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. At 50 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (50–144 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 32 units on file. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (January 2019) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

At 50 m² it sits well below the postcode median (89 m² across 31 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs). Across 2015–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £396,000 is 20% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£613/sq ft) was about 230.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: March 2022 at £330,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 20 Molesworth Road is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL7 4NT. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 20 Molesworth Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 20 Molesworth Road was lodged in January 2019 at band E and is valid until January 2029. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 20 Molesworth Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 13 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL7 4NT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
20 Molesworth Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
