Overview

About 31 Edgar Grove

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

31 Edgar Grove is a detached house in Bishop Auckland (DL14 7QL). It has a recorded floor area of 126 m² (around 1356 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band A. At 126 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (32–126 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (60 versus a best of 79). The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band.
