About 8 Kitson Road
8 Kitson Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE5 7LF). It has a recorded floor area of 139 m² (around 1496 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2020) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in September 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since.

It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area.

On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. 4 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 2 is the typical count.
