About 32 Union Street
32 Union Street is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Barnet (EN5 4HZ). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2022) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. Period features are noted in the property record.
Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 101 m² the property is well over the postcode median (62 m² across 28 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 89% of similar EPCs). Across 2007–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £624,000 sits 78.3% above the 2008 sale of £350,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch, partial demolition and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
