Overview

About 26 Briar Road

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

26 Briar Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Bexley (DA5 2HN). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2021) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in October 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £483,000 sits 84.7% above the 2009 sale of £261,500.
