2 Chandler Road, Loughton, IG10 2LQ

2 Chandler Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Loughton (IG10 2LQ). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since July 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £439,000 sits 75.6% above the 2008 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£276/sq ft) was about 20.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
