Overview

About Flat 2

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

Flat 2 is a semi-detached house in Romford (RM1 2PD). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2019. The latest certificate (January 2023) returns a B (score 84), comfortably above the UK average. At 108 m² this is the 4th smallest of 5 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 55–108 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top.

Today's modelled estimate of £404,000 is 32.7% below the 2016 sale of £600,000, below the original sale price, which typically signals condition or completion-status changes worth verifying. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£516/sq ft) was about 124.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (65 m² across 21 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 71% of similar EPCs). Last sold in October 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2022.
