About 138 Durban Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
138 Durban Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Grimsby (DN32 8AY). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
Today's modelled estimate of £111,000 sits 82% above the 2013 sale of £61,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£46/sq ft) was about 25.6% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs). Last changed hands 14 years ago, in February 2013.
