About 16 Cressy Houses
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Cressy Houses is a one-bedroom property in Tower Hamlets, London, London (E1 3JE). It has a recorded floor area of 65 m² (around 698 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56). The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. At 65 m² this is the 28th smallest of 29 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 23–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 29 units on file.
Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in May 1997. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 65 m² the property is well over the postcode median (38 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £362,000 sits 503.4% above the 1997 sale of £59,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£86/sq ft) was about 74% below the postcode norm.

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 16 Cressy Houses is modelled from its 65 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in E1 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. 1 sale is recorded for 16 Cressy Houses. 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 16 Cressy Houses was lodged in September 2011 at band E and expired in September 2021, 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. None is matched to 16 Cressy Houses. 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 19 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 112 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from E1 3JE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
