About 16a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16a is an end-of-terrace house in Bromley (BR1 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 36 m² (around 388 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Average; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
Held since June 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £240,000 sits 84.6% above the 2007 sale of £130,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£335/sq ft) was about 39.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 36 m² it sits well below the postcode median (72 m² across 28 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.

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 16a is modelled from its 36 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BR1 5HB. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 16a. 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 16a was lodged in August 2019 at band D and is valid until August 2029. 2 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 16a. 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 40 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BR1 5HB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16a is in council tax band B. 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.
