53 Cowick Street, Exeter, EX4 1AP

53 Cowick Street is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Exeter (EX4 1AP). It has a recorded floor area of 163 m² (around 1753 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 50). The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 163 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £300,000 sits 71.4% above the 2009 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£100/sq ft) was about 51.1% below the postcode norm.
