The Old Rectory is a detached house in Grainsby, Grimsby, Grimsby (DN36 5PT). It has a recorded floor area of 377 m² (around 4058 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a G (score 14), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it F (August 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and main heating dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 43), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on bulk wood pellets. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since October 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.

Today's modelled estimate of £775,000 sits 144.1% above the 1997 sale of £317,500. 4 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include solar panel installation, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations.
