21 Buckingham Avenue, Welling, DA16 2LY
About 21 Buckingham Avenue
21 Buckingham Avenue is a detached house in Welling (DA16 2LY). It has a recorded floor area of 135 m² (around 1453 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 87). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since March 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 135 m² it's 18.9% larger than the typical home in the postcode (114 m² median across 10 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £573,000 sits 76.8% above the 2007 sale of £324,100. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£223/sq ft) was about 25.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2007. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
