About 48a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
48a is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Bromley (BR1 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 34 m² (around 366 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. At 34 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–111 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Last sold in October 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 2000–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.6% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£847/sq ft) was about 272.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

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 48a is modelled from its 34 m² EPC floor area, its 5 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. 5 sales are recorded for 48a. 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 48a was lodged in January 2014 at band C and expired in January 2024, 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 48a. 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
- 48a 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.
