About 163 North Street
163 North Street is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Romford (RM1 1ED). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band.
Held since April 2008 — that's 18 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 89 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 19 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 89% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £226,000 sits 67.4% above the 2008 sale of £135,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£141/sq ft) was about 37.8% below the postcode norm. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2017.
