How the estimate is made
The estimate for 324a is modelled from its 40 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CR0 4NH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 324a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
324a is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Croydon (CR0 4NH). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band B. At 40 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (40–123 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (37 versus a best of 75). The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an F (score 37), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 65), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since June 2004 — that's 22 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 40 m² it's 24.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (53 m² median across 7 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £167,000 sits 128.8% above the 2004 sale of £73,000.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 324a is modelled from its 40 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CR0 4NH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 324a. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 324a was lodged in April 2013 at band F and expired in April 2023, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 324a. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 44 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CR0 4NH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 324a is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
