About 8 Gilbert Road

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

8 Gilbert Road is a mid-terrace house in Belvedere (DA17 5DA). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band B. At 64 m² this is the 8th smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 22–117 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C, with this unit at the top.

Today's modelled estimate of £235,000 is 69.1% below the 2022 sale of £761,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition.

Past consents include an extension and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 77% of similar EPCs). Last sale on file: £761,000 in October 2022. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
