17a, Arbuthnot Lane, Bexley, DA5 1EH
About 17a
17a is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bexley (DA5 1EH). It has a recorded floor area of 142 m² (around 1530 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2010) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70). The latest certificate is from May 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Today's modelled estimate of £613,000 sits 58% above the 2014 sale of £388,000. At 142 m² it's 16.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (122 m² median across 23 EPCs). Last sold in February 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2013.
