About 18 Grove Road
18 Grove Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Romford (RM6 4AG). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2014) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since December 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1996–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 12% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £410,000 sits 95.2% above the 2006 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£214/sq ft) was about 24% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
