About 25 Buchan Road

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

25 Buchan Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE15 3HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 85 m² (around 915 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2007 onwards and council tax band D.

Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 79% of similar EPCs). Across 2011–2013, sale prices on this property compounded at 45% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £689,000 is 38.6% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£543/sq ft) was about 81% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
