Flat 2, 57 Drewstead Road, London, SW16 1AA
About Flat 2
Flat 2 is a one-bedroom semi-detached house in London (SW16 1AA). It has a recorded floor area of 54 m² (around 581 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. At 54 m² this is the 2nd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 38–87 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom. On EPC score it ranks last in the building (49 versus a best of 77). Other recorded features include a basement. Period features are noted in the property record. The latest certificate (June 2018) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump.
Held since January 2007 — that's 20 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 £336,000 sits 69.7% above the 2007 sale of £198,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£341/sq ft) was about 40.9% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).
