Overview

About 8 Brickwood Road

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

8 Brickwood Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Croydon (CR0 6UL). It has a recorded floor area of 175 m² (around 1884 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. At 175 m² the property is well over the postcode median (118 m² across 22 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1999–2006, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £563,000 sits 94.1% above the 2006 sale of £290,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£154/sq ft) was about 38.9% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
