Overview

About 20 The Strand

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

20 The Strand is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0AS). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1450 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows an F (score 28), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 44). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £789,000 sits 71.5% above the 2013 sale of £460,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£317/sq ft) was about 39% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

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 20 The Strand is modelled from its 135 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in EX3 0AS. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 20 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 20 The Strand was lodged in November 2011 at band F and expired in November 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 20 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 0AS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
20 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.
