About Flat 2
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
Flat 2 is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in Hornchurch (RM12 4XN). It has a recorded floor area of 35 m² (around 377 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 35 m² this is the largest unit on EPC record across the building (27–35 m²). The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in May 2016 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Held since September 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £169,000 sits 57.2% above the 2007 sale of £107,500. At 35 m² it sits well below the postcode median (52 m² across 29 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
