About Chelfham Barton

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

Chelfham Barton is a detached house in Chelfham, Barnstaple, Barnstaple (EX31 4RP). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an F (score 27), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 96), a 5-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £452,000 is 24.7% below the 2019 sale of £600,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£419/sq ft) was about 117.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 10 planning records sit against the property, 8 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. At 133 m² it's 25.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (179 m² median across 3 EPCs). Sold March 2019 for £600,000.
