About 21a
21a is a detached house in North Tawton (EX20 2DT). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 26 years, with the last transfer in September 2000. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 160 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 46 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £328,000 sits 446.7% above the 2000 sale of £59,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£35/sq ft) was about 73.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2000. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
