Overview

About 5 Brent Close

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

5 Brent Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Bexley (DA5 3QL). 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 (June 2026) shows a C (score 73). When first surveyed in March 2014 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Today's modelled estimate of £649,000 sits 82.8% above the 2014 sale of £355,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£375/sq ft) was about 20.4% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in July 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. At 88 m² it's 26.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (119 m² median across 3 EPCs).
