Overview

About 115a

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

115a is a two-bedroom detached house in Ilford (IG1 4BH). It has a recorded floor area of 40 m² (around 431 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band A. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (October 2019) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (August 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). At 40 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 23 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–104 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 23 units on file. Other recorded features include a self-contained annexe.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in September 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
