About 6 Elm Grove Gardens
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
6 Elm Grove Gardens is a three-bedroom detached house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0EL). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 981 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
Today's modelled estimate of £694,000 sits 68.4% above the 2012 sale of £412,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£420/sq ft) was about 19.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2016. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in April 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 6 Elm Grove Gardens is modelled from its 91 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in EX3 0EL. 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 6 Elm Grove Gardens. 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 6 Elm Grove Gardens was lodged in June 2011 at band D and expired in June 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. 1 application is matched to 6 Elm Grove Gardens. 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 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from EX3 0EL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 6 Elm Grove Gardens is in council tax band E. 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.
