About 7 Gresham Drive

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

7 Gresham Drive is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Romford (RM6 4TL). It has a recorded floor area of 94 m² (around 1012 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Average to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 86).

It hasn't traded since September 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 1999–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £481,000 sits 92.4% above the 2009 sale of £250,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£247/sq ft) was about 15.2% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
