About 72 Lime Grove

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

72 Lime Grove is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bideford (EX39 3JW). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1253 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (November 2011) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in December 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from November 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 116 m² it's 26.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (92 m² median across 30 EPCs). Last sold in February 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
