About Barn House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Barn House is a four-bedroom detached house in Topsham, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0JL). It has a recorded floor area of 208 m² (around 2239 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (June 2013) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in May 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from June 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 208 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£572/sq ft) was about 60.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

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 Barn House is modelled from its 208 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in EX3 0JL. 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 Barn House. 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 Barn House was lodged in June 2013 at band C and expired in June 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 5 applications are matched to Barn House. 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 5 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from EX3 0JL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- Barn House is in council tax band G. 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.
