Overview

About 4 Ballards Crescent

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

4 Ballards Crescent is a two-bedroom detached house in West Yelland, Barnstaple, Barnstaple (EX31 3EU). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in October 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £285,000 sits 65.2% above the 2009 sale of £172,500. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2014. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
