Overview

About Flat 23

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

Flat 23 is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Plymouth (PL9 9WH). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band B. At 58 m² this is the 16th smallest of 19 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 41–76 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a C (score 70). The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £155,000 is 26.5% below the 2005 sale of £210,950, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£338/sq ft) was about 26.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Held since March 2005 — that's 21 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 58 m² it's 24.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (47 m² median across 18 EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for Flat 23 is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PL9 9WH. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Flat 23. 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 Flat 23 was lodged in December 2025 at band C and is valid until December 2035. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Flat 23. 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 10 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PL9 9WH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Flat 23 is in council tax band B. 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.
