Overview

About 9 New Farm Drive

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

9 New Farm Drive is a detached house in Abridge, Romford, Romford (RM4 1BS). It has a recorded floor area of 469 m² (around 5048 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 2007 onwards. The latest certificate (July 2012) returns a B (score 82), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since September 2008 — that's 18 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. At 469 m² the property is well over the postcode median (75 m² across 24 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 88% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £1,538,000 sits 217.1% above the 2008 sale of £485,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£96/sq ft) was about 75.3% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused.

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 9 New Farm Drive is modelled from its 469 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RM4 1BS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 9 New Farm Drive. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 9 New Farm Drive was lodged in July 2012 at band B and expired in July 2022, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 2 applications are matched to 9 New Farm Drive. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 6 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RM4 1BS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
