About 1a
1a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Waltham Forest, London, London (E17 4RN). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (October 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.
Today's modelled estimate of £705,000 sits 66.5% above the 2014 sale of £423,500.
