Overview

About 1 Barnfield Cottages

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

1 Barnfield Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Poltimore, Exeter, Exeter (EX4 0AL). It has a recorded floor area of 114 m² (around 1227 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
