Overview

About 2 Elm Grove

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

2 Elm Grove is a six-bedroom semi-detached house in Taunton (TA1 1EG). It has a recorded floor area of 376 m² (around 4047 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 50). The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

At 376 m² the property is well over the postcode median (221 m² across 12 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Last sold in October 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Across 2014–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 24% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £738,000 is 19% above the 2015 sale price.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2 Elm Grove is modelled from its 376 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in TA1 1EG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 2 Elm Grove. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2 Elm Grove was lodged in July 2013 at band F and expired in July 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 2 Elm Grove. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 17 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 23 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from TA1 1EG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2 Elm Grove is in council tax band F. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
