About 1c

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

1c is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ilford (IG3 8DU). It has a recorded floor area of 71 m² (around 764 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1930-1949. The latest certificate (February 2018) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since July 2011. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 73). At 71 m² this is the 9th smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 50–196 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 27 units on file.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in May 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2007–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at -24.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £394,000 sits 57.6% above the 2008 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£327/sq ft) was about 84.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 71 m² it sits well below the postcode median (117 m² across 26 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
