Overview

About 1 Lucerne Road

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

1 Lucerne Road is a five-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Islington, London, London (N5 1TZ). It has a recorded floor area of 195 m² (around 2103 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since January 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Average to Good and window efficiency went from Poor to Average; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Average and lighting dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 58). The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony.

At 195 m² the property is well over the postcode median (84 m² across 52 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1999–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 12.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £2,369,000 is 24.7% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£903/sq ft) was about 80.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in June 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
