About 15 St Davids Hill
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 St Davids Hill is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Exeter (EX4 3RG). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2021) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 88), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since July 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. At 71 m² the property is well over the postcode median (40 m² across 16 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: new windows approved in 2007. Past consents include new windows and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 51.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £232,000 is 45% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£209/sq ft) was about 23.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 15 St Davids Hill. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
