9 Berry Close, Dagenham, RM10 8LN

9 Berry Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Dagenham (RM10 8LN). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since February 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 90 m² the property is well over the postcode median (62 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £395,000 sits 216% above the 2001 sale of £125,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£129/sq ft) was about 35.6% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2003.
