How the estimate is made
The estimate for 87 Northover is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BR1 5JT. 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 87 Northover
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
87 Northover is a one-bedroom property in Bromley (BR1 5JT). It has a recorded floor area of 33 m² (around 358 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. At 33 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (33–143 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (59 versus a best of 76). The latest certificate (January 2012) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since September 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 33 m² it sits well below the postcode median (74 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £277,000 is 30.7% above the 2007 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£592/sq ft) was about 210.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2009.

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 87 Northover is modelled from its 33 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in BR1 5JT. 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 87 Northover. 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 87 Northover was lodged in January 2012 at band D and expired in January 2022, 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. 1 application is matched to 87 Northover. 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 38 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from BR1 5JT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 87 Northover 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.
