About 42 Crescent West
42 Crescent West is a two-bedroom detached house in Barnet (EN4 0EJ). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 918 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 70).

It hasn't traded since December 2010, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area. 12 planning records sit against the property, 10 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations. At 85 m² it's 22.7% larger than the typical home in the postcode (70 m² median across 14 EPCs).
