Overview

About 8 Caroline Close

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

8 Caroline Close is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Lambeth, London, London (SW16 2XU). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. At 49 m² this is the 15th smallest of 27 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 32–66 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (May 2015) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 2000–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £366,000 is 11.8% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£621/sq ft) was about 77.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. On the market in September 2015 and unlisted since — roughly 11 years.
