About Block J
Block J is a mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE17 1BW). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 448 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 42 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 12 units on EPC record in Block J, where floor areas span 37–55 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The rating has held steady at E across 2 certificates since July 2009. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 65). The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since August 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. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £304,000 sits 128.6% above the 2009 sale of £133,000.
