About 17 College Gardens
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
17 College Gardens is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Waltham Forest, London, London (E4 7LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 3-band jump.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£384/sq ft) was about 52.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
