About 5 Denver Road
5 Denver Road is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0BS). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 451 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 1998 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £193,000 sits 308.5% above the 1998 sale of £47,250. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£105/sq ft) was about 69.5% below the postcode norm. At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (86 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
