About Oakcott
Oakcott is a detached house in Chislehurst (BR7 5DG). It has a recorded floor area of 232 m² (around 2497 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2021) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).
It hasn't traded since July 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. Today's modelled estimate of £1,605,000 sits 82.4% above the 2009 sale of £880,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£352/sq ft) was about 31.3% below the postcode norm. 6 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
