About 2 Castle Street
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Castle Street is an end-of-terrace house in Grimsby (DN32 7LP). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (March 2023) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in August 2013 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump.
It hasn't traded since December 1996, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 90 m² the property is well over the postcode median (34 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £108,000 sits 300% above the 1996 sale of £27,000.

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 2 Castle Street is modelled from its 90 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in DN32 7LP. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 2 Castle Street. 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 2 Castle Street was lodged in March 2023 at band E and is valid until March 2033. 3 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 2 Castle Street. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 25 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DN32 7LP, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Castle Street is in council tax band A. 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.
