About 3 Copse Avenue
3 Copse Avenue is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in West Wickham (BR4 9NL). It has a recorded floor area of 140 m² (around 1507 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 2009 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1995–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £721,000 is 44.2% above the 2009 sale price.
