About 1 Merrymeet
1 Merrymeet is a four-bedroom detached house in Whitestone, Exeter, Exeter (EX4 2JP). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1459 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 59), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 16 years, with the last transfer in December 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
