How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 45 Birkbeck Hill is modelled from its 115 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in SE21 8JS. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 45 Birkbeck Hill. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 45 Birkbeck Hill was lodged in July 2023 at band E and is valid until July 2033. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 45 Birkbeck Hill. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 18 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 64 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from SE21 8JS, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
45 Birkbeck Hill is in council tax band E. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
