64 Gubbins Lane, Romford, RM3 0BL

64 Gubbins Lane is a four-bedroom detached house in Romford (RM3 0BL). It has a recorded floor area of 178 m² (around 1916 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (November 2017) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

It hasn't traded since July 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. At 178 m² the property is well over the postcode median (80 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £697,000 sits 85.9% above the 2008 sale of £375,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£196/sq ft) was about 37.2% below the postcode norm.
