Overview

About 8 Lavender Grove

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

8 Lavender Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bishops Hull, Taunton, Taunton (TA1 5QA). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (58 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £284,000 is 49.5% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£168/sq ft) was about 29% below the postcode norm. Last sold in September 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
