Overview

About 7 Brook Road

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

7 Brook Road is a four-bedroom detached house in Loughton (IG10 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 267 m² (around 2874 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a C (score 74). The rating has held steady at C across 3 certificates since January 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 267 m² the property is well over the postcode median (171 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 70% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2014–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 26% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,834,000 is 14.6% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£557/sq ft) was about 52.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in February 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.
