Get started13 Donald Drive is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Romford (RM6 5EB). It has a recorded floor area of 118 m² (around 1270 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2018) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79).
It hasn't traded since September 2008, a hold of 18 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. At 118 m² the property is well over the postcode median (85 m² across 41 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £500,000 sits 138.1% above the 2008 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£165/sq ft) was about 44.7% below the postcode norm. 7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
13 Donald Drive has been extended on multiple sides of the property across separate planning applications.
