Overview

About 98 Penn Grove Road

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

98 Penn Grove Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Hereford (HR1 1BX). It has a recorded floor area of 238 m² (around 2567 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an F (score 35), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 49). The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since April 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 238 m² the property is well over the postcode median (140 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £683,000 is 36.6% above the 2010 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£195/sq ft) was about 15.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
