About 1 Grasmere Grove
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
1 Grasmere Grove is an end-of-terrace house in Norwood Green, Halifax, Halifax (HX3 8QW). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2025) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 3 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 4-band jump.
At 124 m² the property is well over the postcode median (77 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2000–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £398,000 is 22.5% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£243/sq ft) was about 101.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 Grasmere Grove is modelled from its 124 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HX3 8QW. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 1 Grasmere Grove. 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 Grasmere Grove was lodged in May 2025 at band E and is valid until May 2035. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 1 Grasmere Grove. 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 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HX3 8QW, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 1 Grasmere Grove is in council tax band C. 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.
