About 17 Laurel Crescent

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

17 Laurel Crescent is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Romford (RM7 0RU). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1077 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a D (score 55), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
