10a is a property in Southwark, London, London (SE15 3PS). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 586 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (March 2011) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 56).

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£19/sq ft) was about 94.1% below the postcode norm.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 71% of similar EPCs). Last sold in February 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
