About 3 Faro Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Faro Close is an end-of-terrace house in Bromley (BR1 2RR). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. At 57 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 12 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–165 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since September 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £307,000 sits 86.1% above the 2004 sale of £165,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).

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 3 Faro Close is modelled from its 57 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BR1 2RR. 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 3 Faro Close. 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 3 Faro Close was lodged in May 2015 at band E and expired in May 2025, 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 3 Faro Close. 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 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BR1 2RR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Faro Close is in council tax band C. 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.
