Overview

About 20 Colombo Road

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

20 Colombo Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ilford (IG1 4RQ). It has a recorded floor area of 83 m² (around 897 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from February 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since July 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £437,000 sits 77.6% above the 2009 sale of £246,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£274/sq ft) was about 26.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 0 refused.
