Overview

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. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 89 m² it's 21.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (73 m² median across 28 EPCs). Across 2001–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £330,000 is 37.5% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£251/sq ft) was about 17.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
