About 3 Farrers Place
3 Farrers Place is a five-bedroom detached house in Croydon (CR0 5HB). It has a recorded floor area of 213 m² (around 2293 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since July 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. Today's modelled estimate of £888,000 sits 111.4% above the 2009 sale of £420,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£183/sq ft) was about 56.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
