About 5 Newton Row
5 Newton Row is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Sparkwell, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL7 5DD). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 756 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since May 1997, a hold of 29 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
