About 1 Elm Grove Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Elm Grove Road is a five-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Exeter (EX4 4LL). It has a recorded floor area of 236 m² (around 2540 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (December 2012) shows an F (score 22), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 53). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
At 236 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £793,000 sits 86.6% above the 2013 sale of £425,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£167/sq ft) was about 35.5% below the postcode norm. 12 planning records sit against the property, 11 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in May 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 1 Elm Grove Road is modelled from its 236 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in EX4 4LL. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 1 Elm Grove Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 1 Elm Grove Road was lodged in December 2012 at band F and expired in December 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 12 applications are matched to 1 Elm Grove Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from EX4 4LL, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Elm Grove Road is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
