Overview

About 1 Hestia House

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

1 Hestia House is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE1 3ES). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2003-2006 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2020) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). Main heating runs on electricity. Other recorded features include a balcony.

Held since October 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 109 m² the property is well over the postcode median (72 m² across 35 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). Across 2005–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 20.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £742,000 sits 106.1% above the 2009 sale of £360,000. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include new windows and change of use to residential, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
