51a is a one-bedroom property in Exeter (EX4 1AP). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft). The latest certificate (April 2012) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. Main heating runs on electricity: electricity, unspecified tariff.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 51a is modelled from its 74 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 51a. 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 51a was lodged in April 2012 at band B and expired in April 2022, 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 51a. 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.
