About West Cobham

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

West Cobham is a detached house in Exeter (EX4 5ES). It has a recorded floor area of 368 m² (around 3961 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2026) returns an A (score 93), the top energy band on the EPC scale. When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Very Good and window efficiency went from Good to Very Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in March 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £815,000 sits 226.1% above the 2008 sale of £249,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£63/sq ft) was about 58.6% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused.
