Overview

About 39 Thanet Road

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

39 Thanet Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bexley (DA5 1AP). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since March 2010. Between certificates, lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 139 m² the property is well over the postcode median (94 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, a garage conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. On the market in March 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years. Today's modelled estimate of £587,000 is 43.2% above the 2015 sale price.
