Overview

About 2 Albany Road

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

2 Albany Road is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Waltham Forest, London, London (E17 8DA). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows an E (score 45), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

At 67 m² it's 15.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (80 m² median across 22 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2023. Past consents include an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £600,000 is 27.4% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£653/sq ft) was about 104.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £471,000 in March 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
