5 Chaplin Road, Dagenham, RM9 6EL
About 5 Chaplin Road
5 Chaplin Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Dagenham (RM9 6EL). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2014) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.
Held since April 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 106 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 41 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 2 is the typical count. Today's modelled estimate of £473,000 sits 97.1% above the 2007 sale of £240,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2003. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
