About 8 Doriam Close
8 Doriam Close is a detached house in Exeter (EX4 4RS). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 82). The latest certificate is from January 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 1996, a hold of 30 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 £557,000 sits 430.5% above the 1996 sale of £105,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 70% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2004. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs).
