Overview

About 45 Briar Avenue

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

45 Briar Avenue is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Croydon, London, London (SW16 3AB). It has a recorded floor area of 119 m² (around 1281 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (July 2016) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in April 2010 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Good to Very Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and lighting went from Poor to Very Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since October 2010 — that's 16 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Today's modelled estimate of £657,000 sits 99.7% above the 2010 sale of £329,000.
