About 43b
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
43b is an end-of-terrace house in Exeter (EX4 1AP). It has a recorded floor area of 70 m² (around 753 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 70 m² this is the 6th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 29–163 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 10 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in March 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £193,000 sits 323% above the 1999 sale of £45,625. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£61/sq ft) was about 70.3% below the postcode norm. At 70 m² it's 18.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (59 m² median across 9 EPCs).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 43b is modelled from its 70 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in EX4 1AP. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 43b. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 43b was lodged in July 2015 at band D and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 43b. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from EX4 1AP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
