About 20 Longfield
20 Longfield is a four-bedroom detached house in Loughton (IG10 4EE). It has a recorded floor area of 205 m² (around 2207 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since July 1997, a hold of 29 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 205 m² the property is well over the postcode median (147 m² across 20 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). Today's modelled estimate of £1,078,000 sits 351% above the 1997 sale of £239,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£108/sq ft) was about 73% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2006. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
