Overview

About 11 Dickens Way

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

11 Dickens Way is a five-bedroom detached house in Romford (RM1 4GQ). It has a recorded floor area of 197 m² (around 2125 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. There is a swimming pool on the plot, uncommon for the area. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2001–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £852,000 is 38.5% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£289/sq ft) was about 26.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
