About 39 Abercorn Gardens
39 Abercorn Gardens is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Romford (RM6 4TA). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an F (score 33), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 4-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 18 years, with the last transfer in August 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price.
