Overview

About 1 Compass Drive

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

1 Compass Drive is a four-bedroom detached house in Plymouth (PL7 5DX). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1168 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a corner plot.

It hasn't traded since October 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £362,000 sits 72.4% above the 2009 sale of £210,000. At 109 m² it's 19.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (91 m² median across 26 EPCs).
