About 1 Grove Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Grove Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Bournemouth (BH1 3AS). It has a recorded floor area of 177 m² (around 1905 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 177 m² the property is well over the postcode median (88 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). Across 2013–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 21.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £893,000 is 11.6% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£420/sq ft) was about 66% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 9 years since the last transfer (October 2017).

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 Grove Road is modelled from its 177 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BH1 3AS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 1 Grove Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Grove Road was lodged in July 2016 at band D and expired in July 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 1 Grove Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BH1 3AS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Grove Road is in council tax band G. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
