About 34 Armstrong Avenue
34 Armstrong Avenue is a four-bedroom detached house in Exeter (EX4 5DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 127 m² (around 1367 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in March 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 127 m² the property is well over the postcode median (90 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 70% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2002–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£315/sq ft) was about 21.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £430,000 in November 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
