126 Axiom Apartments, Mercury Gardens, Romford, RM1 3HJ

126 Axiom Apartments is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Romford (RM1 3HJ). It has a recorded floor area of 67 m² (around 721 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. At 67 m² this is the 11th smallest of 19 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 56–83 m². The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. Other recorded features include a balcony. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. Earlier certificates rated it B (October 2015); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, lighting went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in June 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 72% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £273,000 is 13.7% above the 2007 sale price.
