30 Carters Lane is a semi-detached house in Epping Green, Epping, Epping (CM16 6QJ). It has a recorded floor area of 201 m² (around 2164 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2024) shows an F (score 31), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 4-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot.

Held since February 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 201 m² the property is well over the postcode median (110 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £615,000 sits 75.7% above the 2008 sale of £350,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£162/sq ft) was about 39.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2008. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
