5 Bushey Lane, Sutton, SM1 1QL
About 5 Bushey Lane
5 Bushey Lane is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Sutton (SM1 1QL). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The property has underfloor heating on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows an E (score 42), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Last sale on file: £460,000 in February 2020. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. 2 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 0 refused.
