Overview

About 9 Gainsborough Gardens

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

9 Gainsborough Gardens is a five-bedroom detached house in Camden, London, London (NW3 1BJ). It has a recorded floor area of 291 m² (around 3132 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (September 2012) shows an E (score 40), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a balcony. Period features are noted in the property record.

Today's modelled estimate of £5,536,000 is 30.8% below the 2022 sale of £8,000,000, a rare downward gap that often correlates with deferred maintenance or unfinished works. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£2,554/sq ft) was about 124.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 291 m² the property is well over the postcode median (106 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count. 7 planning records sit against the property, 5 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: November 2022 at £8,000,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
