5a, Belmont Road, Ilford, IG1 1YW
About 5a
5a is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ilford (IG1 1YW). It has a recorded floor area of 47 m² (around 506 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in August 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in July 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £200,000 sits 51.5% above the 2008 sale of £132,000. At 47 m² it sits well below the postcode median (90 m² across 36 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
