Overview

About 2 Kings Grove

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

2 Kings Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Romford (RM1 2SU). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 790 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £390,000 sits 66% above the 2008 sale of £235,000.
