Overview

About 12 Elmworth Grove

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

12 Elmworth Grove is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Lambeth, London, London (SE21 8RA). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 958 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in December 2014 the rating was G, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Average to Good and main heating went from Very Poor to Good; while lighting dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £663,000 sits 65.8% above the 2015 sale of £400,000.

Past consents include an extension, new windows and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in April 2015.
