Overview

About 7 Albert Road

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

7 Albert Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Romford (RM1 2PD). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (March 2019) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 89), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since February 1998, a hold of 28 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £324,000 sits 775.7% above the 1998 sale of £37,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£58/sq ft) was about 76.1% below the postcode norm. At 59 m² it's 20.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (74 m² median across 21 EPCs).
