About Darwin House
Darwin House is a semi-detached house in Beckenham (BR3 1AU). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 775 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band E. At 72 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 11 units on EPC record in Darwin House, where floor areas span 60–138 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 11 units on file. The latest certificate (October 2020) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. Main heating runs on electricity.
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. Today's modelled estimate of £380,000 is 22.6% above the 2007 sale price.
