Overview

About Grosvenor Cottage

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

Grosvenor Cottage is a detached house in King's Lynn (PE31 6DE). It has a recorded floor area of 130 m² (around 1399 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89). Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £409,000 sits 66.9% above the 2009 sale of £245,000. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 83% of similar EPCs).

Method

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 Grosvenor Cottage is modelled from its 130 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in PE31 6DE. 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 Grosvenor Cottage. 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 Grosvenor Cottage was lodged in August 2012 at band C and expired in August 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Grosvenor Cottage. 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 1 school and 0 stops listed are measured in a straight line from PE31 6DE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Grosvenor Cottage is in council tax band E. 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.
