Overview

About The Gatehouse

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

The Gatehouse is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Romford (RM1 1AN). It has a recorded floor area of 45 m² (around 484 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (December 2020) shows a C (score 79), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since August 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. At 45 m² this is the 12th smallest of 37 units on EPC record in The Gatehouse, where floor areas span 33–91 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 37 units on file.

Held since April 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £192,000 sits 84.6% above the 2001 sale of £104,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£215/sq ft) was about 19.8% below the postcode norm. At 45 m² it's 15.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (53 m² median across 36 EPCs).

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for The Gatehouse is modelled from its 45 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RM1 1AN. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for The Gatehouse. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for The Gatehouse was lodged in December 2020 at band C and is valid until December 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to The Gatehouse. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RM1 1AN, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
The Gatehouse is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
