About 7 Durban Road
7 Durban Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Beckenham (BR3 4EY). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 977 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 59). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £703,000 sits 87.5% above the 2009 sale of £375,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£384/sq ft) was about 31.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
