About 12 Birchy Barton Hill

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

12 Birchy Barton Hill is a four-bedroom detached house in Exeter (EX1 3ET). It has a recorded floor area of 201 m² (around 2164 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2010 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 75). The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
