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).
