Overview

About 24 Essex Grove

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

24 Essex Grove is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Sunderland (SR3 1BG). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band A. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2021. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £126,000 is 43.2% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£122/sq ft) was about 19.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in October 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. At 67 m² it's 28% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (93 m² median across 16 EPCs).
