About 187 Farnaby Road
187 Farnaby Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Bromley (BR2 0BA). It has a recorded floor area of 198 m² (around 2131 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in October 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Average to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal.
At 198 m² the property is well over the postcode median (130 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £994,000 is 44.1% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£324/sq ft) was about 19.1% below the postcode norm. 12 years since the last transfer (May 2014).
