About 8 Bankside Close

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

8 Bankside Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Bexley (DA5 2HE). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2017) shows an E (score 43), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory and a loft. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 90 m² it's 20.8% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 12 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in March 2018, so it's been off the market for around 8 years. Today's modelled estimate of £530,000 is 26.9% above the 2018 sale price.
