Overview

About 6 Somerset Place

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

6 Somerset Place is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Totnes (TQ9 5AX). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in January 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on bulk wood pellets. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 1995–2023, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £408,000 is 11.3% below the 2023 sale of £460,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£491/sq ft) was about 87.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Sold October 2023 for £460,000.

Method

How to read this page

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 6 Somerset Place is modelled from its 87 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TQ9 5AX. 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. 4 sales are recorded for 6 Somerset Place. 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 6 Somerset Place was lodged in November 2014 at band E and expired in November 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 6 Somerset Place. 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 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 4 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TQ9 5AX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
6 Somerset Place is in council tax band C. 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.
