Overview

About 72b

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

72b is a semi-detached house in Romford (RM7 0DA). It has a recorded floor area of 27 m² (around 291 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. At 27 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (27–98 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 7 units on file. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an F (score 21), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 47). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 30 years, with the last transfer in May 1996. 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 £338,000 sits 87.8% above the 1996 sale of £180,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£619/sq ft) was about 122.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 27 m² it sits well below the postcode median (65 m² across 6 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2017.
