Overview

About 1 Imperial Court

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

1 Imperial Court is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Chislehurst (BR7 5BZ). It has a recorded floor area of 39 m² (around 420 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. At 39 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (39–45 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 9 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in November 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and main heating went from Very Poor to Average; while window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
