Overview

About 53a

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

53a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE15 1QB). It has a recorded floor area of 46 m² (around 495 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 46 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (46–106 m²). The building's EPC ratings span G to C across 19 units on file. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since December 2009. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 46 m² it sits well below the postcode median (97 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Across 2002–2012, sale prices on this property compounded at 9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £394,000 is 46% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£545/sq ft) was about 91.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 years.
