Overview

About 89 Howard Road

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

89 Howard Road is a detached house in Plymouth (PL9 7ER). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from April 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £276,000 sits 72.5% above the 2009 sale of £160,000.
