About 42a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
42a is a mid-terrace house in London (NW5 1AH). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 62 m² this is the 4th smallest of 6 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 14–86 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (54 versus a best of 78). The latest certificate (June 2020) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it C (October 2008); the latest reading is 2 bands lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump.
It hasn't traded since December 2007, 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. Today's modelled estimate of £663,000 sits 54.2% above the 2007 sale of £429,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£644/sq ft) was about 37.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (93 m² across 17 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
