About 2 Centre Cottages

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

2 Centre Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Whitestone, Exeter, Exeter (EX4 2LA). It has a recorded floor area of 164 m² (around 1765 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 66), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on bottled lpg. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
