Overview

About Lownds Court

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

Lownds Court is a detached house in Bromley (BR1 3EA). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. At 42 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Lownds Court (42–118 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (43 versus a best of 82). The latest certificate (December 2019) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 5 certificates since February 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump.

Held since July 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 42 m² it sits well below the postcode median (75 m² across 45 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 76% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £267,000 is 45.9% above the 2004 sale price.

How 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 Lownds Court is modelled from its 42 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in BR1 3EA. 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 Lownds Court. 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 Lownds Court was lodged in December 2019 at band E and is valid until December 2029. 5 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 Lownds Court. 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 30 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BR1 3EA, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Lownds Court 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.
