About 1b Ash Tree Villas
1b Ash Tree Villas is a one-bedroom property in Croydon (CR0 3BF). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. Tenure is freehold. At 69 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (69–122 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a loft. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
It hasn't traded since April 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £289,000 sits 325% above the 2000 sale of £68,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£92/sq ft) was about 61.4% below the postcode norm.
