About 10 Festival Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
10 Festival Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Bexley (DA5 3JE). It has a recorded floor area of 122 m² (around 1313 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from November 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 122 m² the property is well over the postcode median (89 m² across 7 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £552,000 sits 57.7% above the 2015 sale of £350,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£267/sq ft) was about 40.6% below the postcode norm. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in May 2015. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2025. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 10 Festival Close is modelled from its 122 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in DA5 3JE. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 10 Festival Close. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 10 Festival Close was lodged in November 2014 at band D and expired in November 2024, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 10 Festival Close. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 31 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from DA5 3JE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 10 Festival Close is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
