Overview

About 471 Upper Elmers End Road

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

471 Upper Elmers End Road is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Beckenham (BR3 3DB). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good, lighting went from Average to Very Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 160 m² the property is well over the postcode median (111 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
