About Metropolis
Metropolis is a mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE11 4TF). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 449 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1991-1995. At 42 m² this is the 5th smallest of 18 units on EPC record in Metropolis, where floor areas span 39–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (July 2010) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2008. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from July 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in November 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 £415,000 sits 54.4% above the 2007 sale of £268,750. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£599/sq ft) was about 96.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 42 m² it's 16.6% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (50 m² median across 45 EPCs).
