About 23 Grove Road
23 Grove Road is an end-of-terrace house in Wimborne (BH21 1BN). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (February 2013) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 77 m² it's 15.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (67 m² median across 28 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).

Last sold in April 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
