Overview

About 38 Alpha Road

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

38 Alpha Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Croydon (CR0 6TH). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
