About 1 The Grove
1 The Grove is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Little Preston, Leeds, Leeds (LS26 8UX).

Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor.

Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 85% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £414,000 sits 130% above the 2018 sale of £180,000.
