4 Dean Road, Croydon, CR0 1HX

4 Dean Road is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Croydon (CR0 1HX). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1188 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (October 2010) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 63). The latest certificate is from October 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony.

It hasn't traded since January 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. At 110 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £479,000 sits 59.7% above the 2009 sale of £300,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£253/sq ft) was about 22.4% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
