Overview

About 8 Knights Walk

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

8 Knights Walk is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Abridge, Romford, Romford (RM4 1DR). It has a recorded floor area of 62 m² (around 667 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £463,000 sits 59.7% above the 2014 sale of £290,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£435/sq ft) was about 17.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 62 m² it sits well below the postcode median (98 m² across 30 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2015. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in September 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
