How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1a is modelled from its 219 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL9 7NB. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 1a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1a is a three-bedroom detached house in Oreston, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL9 7NB). It has a recorded floor area of 219 m² (around 2357 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2024) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85).
It hasn't traded since June 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. At 219 m² the property is well over the postcode median (60 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2003–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 18% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £701,000 is 24.3% above the 2009 sale price.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1a is modelled from its 219 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in PL9 7NB. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 1a. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1a was lodged in July 2024 at band C and is valid until July 2034. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1a. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 19 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL9 7NB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1a is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
