Overview

About 41 Longdon Wood

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

41 Longdon Wood is a three-bedroom detached house in Keston (BR2 6EN). It has a recorded floor area of 349 m² (around 3757 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (April 2013) returns a high B (score 85), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good, roof efficiency went from Average to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 349 m² the property is well over the postcode median (221 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 82% of similar EPCs). Across 2006–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 15.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £2,710,000 sits 50.6% above the 2013 sale of £1,800,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£479/sq ft) was about 48.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 15 planning records sit against the property, 6 approved, 8 refused. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. Last changed hands 13 years ago, in November 2013.
