About Flat 3
Flat 3 is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Exeter (EX4 3RG). It has a recorded floor area of 32 m² (around 344 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band A. At 32 m² this is the 4th smallest of 6 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 22–34 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (May 2018) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since September 2014. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since September 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £121,000 sits 218.4% above the 1999 sale of £38,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£110/sq ft) was about 41.7% below the postcode norm. At 32 m² it's 28.9% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (45 m² median across 16 EPCs).
