Overview

About 21 Bankside Close

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

21 Bankside Close is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Carshalton (SM5 3SB). It has a recorded floor area of 116 m² (around 1249 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2026) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. Earlier certificates rated it E (July 2024); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Average and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 60), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since March 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Across 1996–2000, sale prices on this property compounded at 19.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £477,000 sits 207.8% above the 2000 sale of £154,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£124/sq ft) was about 42.2% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 85% of similar EPCs).
