Overview

About 8 Fairfax Gardens

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

8 Fairfax Gardens is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Greenwich, London, London (SE3 8PY). It has a recorded floor area of 146 m² (around 1572 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (January 2016) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from January 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

It hasn't traded since April 2007, a hold of 19 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. At 146 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £560,000 sits 173.2% above the 2007 sale of £205,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£130/sq ft) was about 40.4% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
