Overview

About 17 The Strand

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

17 The Strand is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0AN). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property.

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 17 The Strand is modelled from its 108 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in EX3 0AN. 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 17 The Strand. 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 17 The Strand was lodged in September 2024 at band D and is valid until September 2034. 3 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 17 The Strand. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from EX3 0AN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 The Strand is in council tax band F. 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.
