Overview

About 5 Barton Cottages

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

5 Barton Cottages is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Down Thomas, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL9 0AH). It has a recorded floor area of 102 m² (around 1098 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 102 m² the property is well over the postcode median (75 m² across 4 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 £264,000 sits 65% above the 2014 sale of £160,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£146/sq ft) was about 38.9% below the postcode norm. Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
