Get startedEast Brook Cottage is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lympstone, Exmouth, Exmouth (EX8 5LE). It has a recorded floor area of 170 m² (around 1830 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 4 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
At 170 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in October 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years. Today's modelled estimate of £650,000 is 34% above the 2013 sale price.
East Brook Cottage's carbon output runs well above what efficient homes in the postcode produce.
