About 5 St Georges Cottages
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 St Georges Cottages is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE1 0SH). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2011 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Good to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 79 m² the property is well over the postcode median (51 m² across 5 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 3 refused. Past consents include new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Today's modelled estimate of £992,000 is 28% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£911/sq ft) was about 19% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 13 years since the last transfer (December 2013).
