Overview

About 1 Admiral Lodge

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

1 Admiral Lodge is a one-bedroom detached house in Romford (RM1 3LN). It has a recorded floor area of 55 m² (around 592 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007-2011 and council tax band B. Tenure is freehold. At 55 m² this is the 11th smallest of 16 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–73 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B across 16 units on file. The latest certificate (March 2025) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 84). Main heating runs on electricity.

Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in November 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 55 m² the property is well over the postcode median (42 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1997–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £185,000 is 32.1% above the 2008 sale price.
