Overview

About 20 Cambridge Road

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

20 Cambridge Road is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Carshalton (SM5 3QP). It has a recorded floor area of 155 m² (around 1668 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. When first surveyed in December 2012 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

At 155 m² the property is well over the postcode median (97 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2013. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2013–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 22% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £787,000 is 24.9% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£378/sq ft) was about 20.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 10 years ago, in November 2016.
