About Flat

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

Flat is a mid-terrace house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (October 2020) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in December 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.

Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 is 10.5% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£355/sq ft) was about 66.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.
