About 1 Holmbury Grove
1 Holmbury Grove is an end-of-terrace house in Croydon (CR0 9AN). It has a recorded floor area of 81 m² (around 872 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in April 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Average to Good, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor.
Held since October 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 81 m² the property is well over the postcode median (50 m² across 26 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £285,000 sits 50% above the 2008 sale of £190,000.
