Overview

About 1 Lessington Avenue

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

1 Lessington Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Romford (RM7 9EB). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 840 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2025) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 3 certificates since July 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.

It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £444,000 sits 153.7% above the 2009 sale of £175,000.
