About 16 The Quay
16 The Quay is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Oreston, Plymouth, Plymouth (PL9 7NE). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2015) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from January 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since June 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 135 m² the property is well over the postcode median (103 m² across 6 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £281,000 sits 349.6% above the 1998 sale of £62,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£43/sq ft) was about 62.4% below the postcode norm.
