About Elmfield

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

Elmfield is a five-bedroom detached house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0BT). It has a recorded floor area of 192 m² (around 2067 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G.
