Overview

About 5 Larches Avenue

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

5 Larches Avenue is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Richmond Upon Thames, London, London (SW14 8LX). It has a recorded floor area of 115 m² (around 1238 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (February 2020) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (July 2009); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Very Poor and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump.

Held since March 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £1,170,000 sits 106.7% above the 2007 sale of £566,100. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£457/sq ft) was about 48.2% below the postcode norm. At 115 m² it's 29.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (89 m² median across 6 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2008.
