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 £627,000 is 25.4% above the 2007 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
