5a, Harrow View, Harrow, HA1 1RE
About 5a
5a is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Harrow (HA1 1RE). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (December 2024) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
Held since February 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 109 m² the property is well over the postcode median (64 m² across 32 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £371,000 sits 76.7% above the 2008 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£179/sq ft) was about 29.7% below the postcode norm.
