Overview

About Churchill House

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

Churchill House is a detached house in East Down, Barnstaple, Barnstaple (EX31 4LT). It has a recorded floor area of 372 m² (around 4004 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 372 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2016.
