Overview

About 21 Laurel Crescent

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

21 Laurel Crescent is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Romford (RM7 0RU). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in May 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £476,000 sits 95.9% above the 2007 sale of £243,000. One planning record on file: a garage conversion approved in 2016. Past consents include a garage conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 86 m² it's 15.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (102 m² median across 30 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
