Overview

About Derwent Court

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

Derwent Court is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Romford (RM1 1EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (May 2022) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in September 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Good to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. At 56 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 17 units on EPC record in Derwent Court, where floor areas span 30–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 17 units on file.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. 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 £251,000 is 25.5% above the 2007 sale price.
