Overview

About Cofton Cottage

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

Cofton Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Exbourne, Okehampton, Okehampton (EX20 3RY). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1166 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2008) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from October 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £303,000 is 32.3% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£196/sq ft) was about 23.8% below the postcode norm.
