About 59 Yealm Road
59 Yealm Road is a detached house in Newton Ferrers, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL8 1BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 243 m² (around 2616 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2012) shows an F (score 26), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from June 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 243 m² the property is well over the postcode median (129 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £1,608,000 sits 53.1% above the 2007 sale of £1,050,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£401/sq ft) was about 46.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 6 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused.
