About 87a

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

87a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Croydon (CR0 6BE). It has a recorded floor area of 68 m² (around 735 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 68 m² the property is well over the postcode median (24 m² across 47 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.

Today's modelled estimate of £386,000 sits 83.8% above the 2012 sale of £210,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused.
