Overview

About 17 Gresham Drive

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

17 Gresham Drive is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Romford (RM6 4TL). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 948 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a loft. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £492,000 sits 77% above the 2007 sale of £278,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
