Overview

About 39 Boston Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

39 Boston Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Croydon (CR0 3EG). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Last sold in January 2015, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Across 2001–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £363,000 is 45.2% above the 2015 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.
