Overview

About March Brown

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

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.

Today's modelled estimate of £504,000 sits 61.5% above the 2012 sale of £312,015. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£403/sq ft) was about 36.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 72 m² it sits well below the postcode median (166 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% 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. 15 years since the last transfer (January 2012).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for March Brown is modelled from its 72 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in EX3 0QT. 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 March Brown. 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 March Brown was lodged in October 2015 at band E and expired in October 2025, 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. 1 application is matched to March Brown. 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 3 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from EX3 0QT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
March Brown is in council tax band D. 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.
