179 Langley Way, West Wickham, BR4 0DN
About 179 Langley Way
179 Langley Way is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in West Wickham (BR4 0DN). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1345 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since June 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Untraded for 25 years, with the last transfer in February 2001. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 125 m² the property is well over the postcode median (92 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £672,000 sits 275.4% above the 2001 sale of £179,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£133/sq ft) was about 63.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
