As Jonesey says, the info you would get would be very limited. Have you considered finding the address on1911 census? Not much earlier so you might be lucky, and if so will get lots of information.

There were indeed electoral registers compiled in 1914, 1915 but not in 1916 or 1917. They resumed in 1918.

Remember however that it was not until 1918 that all males aged 21 or over and all females (Of property) aged 30 or over were franchised to vote so would appear on an electoral register. It was only in 1928 that all women aged 21 or over were granted the right to vote.
