Overview

About 85 Blendon Road

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

85 Blendon Road is a two-bedroom detached house in Bexley (DA5 1BP). It has a recorded floor area of 92 m² (around 990 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2014) 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 February 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 92 m² it sits well below the postcode median (135 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2004–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£598/sq ft) was about 309.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Most recent transfer: September 2022 at £592,500. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
