Overview

About 73 Blendon Road

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

73 Blendon Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bexley (DA5 1BN). It has a recorded floor area of 128 m² (around 1378 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in July 2012 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2003–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£445/sq ft) was about 21.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold May 2022 for £612,500. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2024.
