Overview

About 153 Longheath Gardens

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

153 Longheath Gardens is an end-of-terrace house in Croydon (CR0 7TQ). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (July 2015) shows an F (score 21), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 76 m² this is the 38th smallest of 45 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–107 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (21 versus a best of 86).

It hasn't traded since October 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £237,000 sits 558.3% above the 1998 sale of £36,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£44/sq ft) was about 79.2% below the postcode norm.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 153 Longheath Gardens is modelled from its 76 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in CR0 7TQ. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 153 Longheath Gardens. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 153 Longheath Gardens was lodged in July 2015 at band F and expired in July 2025, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 153 Longheath Gardens. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 49 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from CR0 7TQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
153 Longheath Gardens is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
