Overview

About 1 The Grove

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

1 The Grove is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Little Preston, Leeds, Leeds (LS26 8UX). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1636 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (November 2024) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in October 2017 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. 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. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 152 m² the property is well over the postcode median (86 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 85% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £376,000 sits 108.9% above the 2018 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£110/sq ft) was about 39.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in February 2018, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 1 The Grove is modelled from its 152 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in LS26 8UX. 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 The 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 The Grove was lodged in November 2024 at band C and is valid until November 2034. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 1 The 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 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 9 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from LS26 8UX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
1 The 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.
