About 245 Pickhurst Rise
245 Pickhurst Rise is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in West Wickham (BR4 0AH). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1040 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1997–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £615,000 sits 59.7% above the 2009 sale of £385,000. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 97 m² it's 22.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (124 m² median across 14 EPCs).
