Overview

About 3 Larch Grove

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

3 Larch Grove is a five-bedroom detached house in Plympton, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL7 5EB). It has a recorded floor area of 246 m² (around 2648 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position. The latest certificate (April 2018) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil.

Held since May 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 246 m² the property is well over the postcode median (124 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £642,000 is 28.4% above the 2007 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.

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 3 Larch Grove is modelled from its 246 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL7 5EB. 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 3 Larch Grove. 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 3 Larch Grove was lodged in April 2018 at band E and is valid until April 2028. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 3 Larch Grove. 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 8 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL7 5EB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
3 Larch Grove is in council tax band F. 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.
