About Salt Winds
Salt Winds is a three-bedroom detached house in Appledore, Bideford, Bideford (EX39 1SF). It has a recorded floor area of 144 m² (around 1555 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2010) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011.
