About 79 Abbey Road
79 Abbey Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Belvedere (DA17 5DG). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since February 2012. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2005–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £504,000 is 12% above the 2022 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£475/sq ft) was about 154.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold April 2022 for £450,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
