About 24a
24a is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ilford (IG1 4SA). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good, lighting went from Very Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. At 62 m² this is the 32nd smallest of 54 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 24–269 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 54 units on file.
Held since January 1999 — that's 28 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
