About 187 Croydon Road
187 Croydon Road is a semi-detached house in Beckenham (BR3 3QH). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1154 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since November 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £524,000 sits 78.2% above the 2009 sale of £294,000.
