About 83a
83a is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Belvedere (DA17 5DG). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 624 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 58 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 7 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 47–125 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (November 2024) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in June 2013 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in February 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £205,000 sits 64% above the 2008 sale of £124,995. At 58 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
