Overview

About 7 Crabtree Avenue

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

7 Crabtree Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Romford (RM6 5EX). It has a recorded floor area of 82 m² (around 883 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in October 2011 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good and window efficiency went from Average to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and main heating dropped from Good to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77). Main heating runs on lpg. The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 27 years, with the last transfer in April 1999. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £421,000 sits 493% above the 1999 sale of £70,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£80/sq ft) was about 73.4% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
