Overview

About 5 Albert Mews

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

5 Albert Mews is a five-bedroom detached house in Romford (RM1 2PD). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2011) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). The latest certificate is from September 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings and attached land beyond the plot. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.

At 97 m² the property is well over the postcode median (65 m² across 21 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. Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.5% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£833/sq ft) was about 244.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 13 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 1 refused. Most recent transfer: September 2021 at £870,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
