Overview

About 7 St Thomas Gardens

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

7 St Thomas Gardens is a five-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Ilford (IG1 2PQ). It has a recorded floor area of 147 m² (around 1582 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2015) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from October 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in January 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 147 m² the property is well over the postcode median (93 m² across 25 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 26.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £554,000 sits 59.7% above the 2008 sale of £347,000. 4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
