Overview

About 23 Mcdowall Road

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

23 Mcdowall Road is a four-bedroom mid-terrace house in Southwark, London, London (SE5 9LD). It has a recorded floor area of 112 m² (around 1208 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (May 2011) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in October 2008 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and window efficiency went from Average to Good. The latest certificate is from May 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since January 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £830,000 sits 140.6% above the 2009 sale of £345,000. At 112 m² it's 21.3% larger than the typical home in the postcode (93 m² median across 26 EPCs). Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 85% of similar EPCs).
