8 Albany Park Road is an eight-bedroom detached house in Kingston Upon Thames (KT2 5SW). It has a recorded floor area of 373 m² (around 4012 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows an F (score 34), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 40).

It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 373 m² the property is well over the postcode median (256 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 8 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 5 is the typical count. Across 1998–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year.

Past consents include a garage conversion and tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references conservation-area consent, which constrain future alterations.
