About 1 Cobourg Road
1 Cobourg Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE5 0HT). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 947 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (February 2026) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. When first surveyed in July 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.
Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in December 2008. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £664,000 sits 216.2% above the 2008 sale of £210,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£222/sq ft) was about 68.8% below the postcode norm.
