About 16 Dunton Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
16 Dunton Road is a one-bedroom property in Romford (RM1 4AH). It has a recorded floor area of 58 m² (around 625 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. At 58 m² this is the 18th smallest of 36 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 31–127 m². The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 36 units on file. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2011. The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1997–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £223,000 sits 99.1% above the 2007 sale of £112,000.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 16 Dunton Road is modelled from its 58 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in RM1 4AH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 3 sales are recorded for 16 Dunton Road. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 16 Dunton Road was lodged in June 2011 at band D and expired in June 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 16 Dunton Road. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 35 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RM1 4AH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 16 Dunton Road is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
