About 8 Greyfriars Road

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

8 Greyfriars Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Exeter (EX4 7BS). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since July 2012. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 90).
