Overview

About 3 Westbrook Cottages

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

3 Westbrook Cottages is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in North Thoresby, Grimsby, Grimsby (DN36 5QS). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1967-1975. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 5 certificates since April 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 61). Main heating runs on oil. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Held since March 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £163,000 sits 81.1% above the 2007 sale of £90,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£96/sq ft) was about 24% below the postcode norm. At 87 m² it sits well below the postcode median (186 m² across 20 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
