About 23 Bowmans Mews
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
23 Bowmans Mews is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Tower Hamlets, London, London (E1 8RY). It has a recorded floor area of 37 m² (around 398 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. At 37 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (37–106 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 19 units on file. The latest certificate (April 2022) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (July 2014); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
It hasn't traded since December 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £355,000 sits 379.7% above the 1998 sale of £74,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£186/sq ft) was about 62.1% below the postcode norm. At 37 m² it sits well below the postcode median (53 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 78% of similar EPCs).

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 23 Bowmans Mews is modelled from its 37 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in E1 8RY. 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 23 Bowmans Mews. 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 23 Bowmans Mews was lodged in April 2022 at band E and is valid until April 2032. 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 23 Bowmans Mews. 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 106 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from E1 8RY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 23 Bowmans Mews is in council tax band C. 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.
