About 88a
88a is an end-of-terrace house in Grimsby (DN32 8AL). It has a recorded floor area of 35 m² (around 377 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (January 2020) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £95,000 sits 102.1% above the 2007 sale of £46,999. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£125/sq ft) was about 142.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 35 m² it sits well below the postcode median (91 m² across 29 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
