Overview

About 29 Alderwood Drive

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

29 Alderwood Drive is a semi-detached house in Abridge, Romford, Romford (RM4 1DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 99 m² (around 1063 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2008) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from September 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since August 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. Across 2004–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £531,000 sits 63.4% above the 2009 sale of £325,000.
