About 30 Forest Road
30 Forest Road is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Loughton (IG10 1DX). It has a recorded floor area of 110 m² (around 1180 sq ft) and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2009) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from November 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since October 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 110 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £549,000 sits 339.2% above the 1998 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£106/sq ft) was about 63.6% below the postcode norm. 6 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
