About Grasmead House
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Grasmead House is a two-bedroom detached house in York (YO24 1DF). It has a recorded floor area of 63 m² (around 678 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 63 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in Grasmead House, where floor areas span 57–74 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (69 versus a worst of 28). Other recorded features include notable views. The latest certificate (June 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was G, the property has climbed 4 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Very Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The latest certificate is from June 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 63 m² it sits well below the postcode median (102 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 74% of similar EPCs). Sold June 2021 for £290,000. Across the public record there are 6 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for Grasmead House is modelled from its 63 m² EPC floor area, its 6 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in YO24 1DF. 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. 6 sales are recorded for Grasmead House. 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 Grasmead House was lodged in June 2016 at band C and expired in June 2026, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 3 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Grasmead House. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 29 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from YO24 1DF, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
