Overview

About 17 Cowper Avenue

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

17 Cowper Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Sutton (SM1 3RD). It has a recorded floor area of 78 m² (around 841 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time.
