Overview

About 26 Blendon Road

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

26 Blendon Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Bexley (DA5 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 152 m² (around 1636 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2010. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Average to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 78), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £797,000 sits 59.4% above the 2014 sale of £499,999. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£306/sq ft) was about 15.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 152 m² it's 18.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (128 m² median across 9 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Last sold in May 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
