14 Rugby Road, Exeter, EX4 1BH
About 14 Rugby Road
14 Rugby Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Exeter (EX4 1BH). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in December 2015 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since January 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £281,000 sits 53.6% above the 2007 sale of £183,000. At 97 m² it's 26% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 15 EPCs).
