About 5 Albany Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Albany Close is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bexley (DA5 3ES). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since December 2008 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £407,000 sits 132.6% above the 2008 sale of £175,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 45.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2009. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
