Overview

About 16 Gresham Close

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

16 Gresham Close is a two-bedroom detached house in Bexley (DA5 1EW). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 567 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. At 53 m² this is the 4th smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 46–64 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (March 2009) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from March 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since June 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £257,000 sits 68.5% above the 2009 sale of £152,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£269/sq ft) was about 17.8% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs).
