Sunnyview Lodge is a five-bedroom detached house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0DB). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1776 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a C (score 71).

Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since April 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2006–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 31% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £789,000 sits 85.6% above the 2008 sale of £425,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£239/sq ft) was about 18.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 165 m² it's 21.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (136 m² median across 11 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count.
