Overview

About 1 Vanbrugh Hill

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

1 Vanbrugh Hill is a six-bedroom semi-detached house in Greenwich, London, London (SE3 7UE). It has a recorded floor area of 95 m² (around 1023 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. At 95 m² this is the 8th smallest of 11 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 54–205 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (November 2025) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

It hasn't traded since December 2008, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2016. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 95 m² it's 23.4% larger than the typical home in the postcode (77 m² median across 16 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 75% of similar EPCs). 6 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 4 is the typical count. Across 1996–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,000,000 is 18.9% above the 2008 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£822/sq ft) was about 150.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
