Overview

About 3 Highfield Drive

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

3 Highfield Drive is a three-bedroom detached house in Wembury, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL9 0EX). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 108), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

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. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 77 m² it's 16.8% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (93 m² median across 6 EPCs). Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £336,000 is 49.3% above the 2009 sale price.
