Overview

About 13 The Close

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

13 The Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Bexley (DA5 1BD). It has a recorded floor area of 132 m² (around 1425 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2011) shows an F (score 21), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 52). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from February 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.

Held since June 2011 — that's 15 years off the open market, well above the local norm. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £868,000 is 47.1% above the 2011 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£414/sq ft) was about 15.6% below the postcode norm.
