About 32a
32a is a mid-terrace house in Harrow (HA1 1BE). It has a recorded floor area of 52 m² (around 560 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. At 52 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 14 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 48–59 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 (39 versus a best of 76). The latest certificate (January 2021) shows an E (score 39), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (December 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
Today's modelled estimate of £244,000 is 70.4% below the 2021 sale of £825,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£1,474/sq ft) was about 134.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £825,000 in September 2021. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
