1a, Bridgewater Close, Chislehurst, BR7 6QU
About 1a
1a is a five-bedroom detached house in Chislehurst (BR7 6QU). It has a recorded floor area of 215 m² (around 2314 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,232,000 is 39.2% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£382/sq ft) was about 195.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
