18 Forest View Road, Loughton, IG10 4DX

18 Forest View Road is a six-bedroom detached house in Loughton (IG10 4DX). It has a recorded floor area of 232 m² (around 2497 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since May 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 232 m² the property is well over the postcode median (110 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £1,375,000 sits 323.1% above the 1998 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£130/sq ft) was about 71.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2014. Past consents include an extension and an annexe, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
