Overview

About 31 Camberwell Grove

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

31 Camberwell Grove is a five-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE5 8JA). It has a recorded floor area of 186 m² (around 2002 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. Tenure is freehold. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 186 m² the property is well over the postcode median (120 m² across 34 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. Across 2001–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.2% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£842/sq ft) was about 117.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 11 years ago, in May 2015.
