About 8 Gurney Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Gurney Close is a mid-terrace house in Barking (IG11 8JX). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (September 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Average to Poor and window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since January 2001, a hold of 25 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 67 m² the property is well over the postcode median (49 m² across 58 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock.
