How the estimate is made
The estimate for 15 Orchard Road is modelled from its 192 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BR1 2PR. 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.

About 15 Orchard Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Orchard Road is a detached house in Bromley (BR1 2PR). It has a recorded floor area of 192 m² (around 2065 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 69), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £980,000 sits 276.9% above the 1997 sale of £260,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£126/sq ft) was about 61.7% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).

Start your researchHow to read this page
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 15 Orchard Road is modelled from its 192 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BR1 2PR. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 15 Orchard Road. 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 15 Orchard Road was lodged in March 2010 at band E and expired in March 2020, 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. 3 applications are matched to 15 Orchard Road. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 32 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BR1 2PR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 15 Orchard Road is in council tax band G. 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.
