Overview

About The Croft

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

The Croft is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Croydon (CR0 5JT). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. At 71 m² this is the 5th smallest of 12 units on EPC record in The Croft, where floor areas span 67–78 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (50 versus a best of 82). The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (106 m² across 36 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£449/sq ft) was about 71.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 10 years since the last transfer (September 2016).
