Overview

About 7 Plimsoll Road

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

7 Plimsoll Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Islington, London, London (N4 2EW). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2011 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 80), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 97 m² it's 22.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (126 m² median across 22 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 2 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £1,199,000 is 19.9% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£958/sq ft) was about 131% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in January 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
