Overview

About 21 Cavenham Gardens

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

21 Cavenham Gardens is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ilford (IG1 1XX). It has a recorded floor area of 104 m² (around 1120 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2009) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from September 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £443,000 sits 69.1% above the 2008 sale of £262,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 77% of similar EPCs).
