Overview

About 3 Duchess Apartments

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

3 Duchess Apartments is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Welling (DA16 3EA). It has a recorded floor area of 69 m² (around 743 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2007 onwards. 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. At 69 m² this is the 4th smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 67–72 m². The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2014. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Good to Very Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
