About 17 Addington Road
17 Addington Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Croydon (CR0 3LW). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (June 2010); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 96 m² the property is well over the postcode median (68 m² across 29 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. Across 2001–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £393,000 sits 78.6% above the 2011 sale of £220,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2002. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
