About 16 Ilex Close
16 Ilex Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Exeter (EX4 9JZ). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (December 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 92), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
