About 1 Athenlay Road
1 Athenlay Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE15 3EA). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1390 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows an F (score 30), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 48). The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.
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 129 m² the property is well over the postcode median (73 m² across 18 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Across 2005–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 11.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £884,000 sits 113% above the 2009 sale of £415,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£299/sq ft) was about 15.1% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
