About 34 Culvers Retreat
34 Culvers Retreat is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Carshalton (SM5 2BE). It has a recorded floor area of 75 m² (around 807 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2021) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 4 certificates since January 2015. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Very Good to Good.
It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 75 m² the property is well over the postcode median (56 m² across 51 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £313,000 sits 104.6% above the 2007 sale of £153,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£190/sq ft) was about 30.4% below the postcode norm.
