Overview

About Wayside Cottage

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

Wayside Cottage is a semi-detached house in Down Thomas, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL9 0AW). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 101), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on dual fuel.

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.
