12 Langley Way, West Wickham, BR4 0DP
About 12 Langley Way
12 Langley Way is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in West Wickham (BR4 0DP). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1201 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an F (score 38), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 54). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £622,000 sits 84.3% above the 2009 sale of £337,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£281/sq ft) was about 25.7% below the postcode norm. 2 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.
