About 10 Widecombe Close
10 Widecombe Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Romford (RM3 8PL). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2008) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from September 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since February 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales.
