Overview

About Penthouse Flat

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

Penthouse Flat is a mid-terrace house in London (E1 6JE). It has a recorded floor area of 183 m² (around 1968 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1983-1990. The latest certificate (July 2011) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since June 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2004–2019, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,666,000 is 45.4% below the 2019 sale of £3,050,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,550/sq ft) was about 977.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 183 m² the property is well over the postcode median (50 m² across 43 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 84% of similar EPCs). Most recent transfer: November 2019 at £3,050,000.

How 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 Penthouse Flat is modelled from its 183 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in E1 6JE. 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. 3 sales are recorded for Penthouse Flat. 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 Penthouse Flat was lodged in July 2011 at band E and expired in July 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Penthouse Flat. 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 109 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from E1 6JE, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
