About 38 Cowdray Way
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
38 Cowdray Way is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hornchurch (RM12 4AU). It has a recorded floor area of 121 m² (around 1302 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2015) returns a high B (score 87), putting the home a stone's throw from an A rating. When first surveyed in October 2014 the rating was C, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would push it to A (score 95). The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since January 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Today's modelled estimate of £471,000 sits 109.3% above the 2008 sale of £225,000. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2021.
