Overview

About 30 Sidney Road

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

30 Sidney Road is a semi-detached house in Beckenham (BR3 4QA). It has a recorded floor area of 182 m² (around 1959 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 182 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £834,000 sits 96.2% above the 2012 sale of £425,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£217/sq ft) was about 28.1% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. 14 years since the last transfer (November 2012).
