A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Highgrove is a four-bedroom detached house in Lympstone, Exmouth, Exmouth (EX8 5LF). It has a recorded floor area of 201 m² (around 2164 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 71), a 2-band jump.
