Overview

About 1 Thornton Road

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

1 Thornton Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Ilford (IG1 2ER). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2020) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump.

Held since January 2007 — that's 20 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. Today's modelled estimate of £448,000 sits 82.9% above the 2007 sale of £245,000. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
