Local market context
50 Springfield Road is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Plymouth (PL9 8PR). It has a recorded floor area of 48 m² (around 517 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2024) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since May 2014. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).
It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 48 m² it sits well below the postcode median (70 m² across 31 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 18.8% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£225/sq ft) was about 54.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
