Overview

About 21 Ashby Street

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

21 Ashby Street is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Islington, London, London (EC1V 0ED). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2021) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in November 2011 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. Period features are noted in the property record.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in March 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 75 m² the property is well over the postcode median (57 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £637,000 sits 82% above the 2007 sale of £350,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
