About Merebank

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

Merebank is a two-bedroom detached house in Romford (RM3 0AN). It has a recorded floor area of 66 m² (around 709 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2012) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 55). The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory and outbuildings.

Across 1999–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £430,000 sits 85.3% above the 2014 sale of £232,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£327/sq ft) was about 20.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
