Royston Court, Flat 3, 2 Ashby Road, Lewisham, London, SE4 1PR

Royston Court is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Lewisham, London, London (SE4 1PR). It has a recorded floor area of 72 m² (around 776 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band C. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. At 72 m² this is the 5th smallest of 8 units on EPC record in Royston Court, where floor areas span 60–120 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the top. On EPC score it ranks first in the building (81 versus a worst of 62). The latest certificate (December 2009) returns a B (score 81), comfortably above the UK average. The latest certificate is from December 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since January 1997, a hold of 30 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £414,000 sits 590% above the 1997 sale of £60,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£77/sq ft) was about 71% below the postcode norm. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 81% of similar EPCs). One planning record on file: an extension refused in 2006.
