Overview

About 6 Orchid Close

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

6 Orchid Close is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Abridge, Romford, Romford (RM4 1DF). It has a recorded floor area of 57 m² (around 614 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (May 2014) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 90). The latest certificate is from May 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. Across the public record there are 5 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 10% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £393,000 sits 74.7% above the 2007 sale of £225,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£367/sq ft) was about 52.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
