Overview

About 12 London Road

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

12 London Road is a five-bedroom detached house in Abridge, Romford, Romford (RM4 1UX). It has a recorded floor area of 165 m² (around 1780 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 72). The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 165 m² the property is well over the postcode median (112 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £792,000 sits 220.3% above the 1996 sale of £247,250. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£139/sq ft) was about 67.3% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension and a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 12 London Road is modelled from its 165 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in RM4 1UX. 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 12 London Road. 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 12 London Road was lodged in April 2010 at band D and expired in April 2020, 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. 1 application is matched to 12 London Road. 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 7 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from RM4 1UX, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
12 London Road is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
