Overview

About Flat

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

Flat is a mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE15 1JB). It has a recorded floor area of 74 m² (around 797 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. At 74 m² this is the 23rd smallest of 24 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 14–79 m². The building's EPC ratings span F to B across 24 units on file. The latest certificate (December 2018) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 77).

It hasn't traded since October 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 74 m² the property is well over the postcode median (47 m² across 23 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £382,000 sits 94.4% above the 2007 sale of £196,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£247/sq ft) was about 32.3% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
