About 2 Lansdowne Road
2 Lansdowne Road is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Ilford (IG3 8NE). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1776 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2023) shows a D (score 60), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in January 2014 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in December 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 165 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 20 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2001–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £558,000 sits 86% above the 2007 sale of £300,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 23.6% below the postcode norm. 5 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
