Overview

About 8 Merivale Road

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

8 Merivale Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Harrow (HA1 4BH). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2011) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from March 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since December 2003, a hold of 22 years that's notably long for the area. At 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2003, sale prices on this property compounded at 13.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £559,000 sits 128.2% above the 2003 sale of £245,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£217/sq ft) was about 28.7% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2016. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
