About 5 Elm Grove Road

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

5 Elm Grove Road is a mid-terrace house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1755 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69).
