About 81 Fore Street

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

81 Fore Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump.
