About March Brown
March Brown is a two-bedroom detached house in Ebford, Exeter, Exeter (EX3 0QT). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2011. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£403/sq ft) was about 29.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 72 m² it sits well below the postcode median (143 m² across 16 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 14 years since the last transfer (January 2012).
