About Flat 1
Flat 1 is an end-of-terrace house in London (E2 8NH). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. At 103 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 59–117 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (46 versus a best of 77). The latest certificate (March 2016) shows an E (score 46), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 1997–2018, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £676,000 is 53.4% below the 2018 sale of £1,450,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,308/sq ft) was about 493.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 4 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Last changed hands 8 years ago, in February 2018.
