Overview

About 169 Grove Road

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

169 Grove Road is a mid-terrace house in Romford (RM6 4DA). It has a recorded floor area of 164 m² (around 1765 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (February 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 164 m² the property is well over the postcode median (65 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
