9 Craigen Gardens, Ilford, IG3 9FG

9 Craigen Gardens is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Ilford (IG3 9FG). It has a recorded floor area of 103 m² (around 1109 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2021) shows a C (score 78), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 89).

It hasn't traded since November 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 103 m² the property is well over the postcode median (70 m² across 29 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £473,000 sits 66% above the 2008 sale of £284,999. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£257/sq ft) was about 22.5% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2022. Past consents include an extension, a loft conversion and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
