About Russetts
Russetts is a five-bedroom detached house in Nadderwater, Exeter, Exeter (EX4 2LD). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1058 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 62). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£359/sq ft) was about 21.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in January 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
