Overview

About 11 Benett Gardens

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

11 Benett Gardens is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Croydon, London, London (SW16 4QE). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (January 2021) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 73), a 2-band jump. It has already been extended once and our model flags further extension potential, a sign of buyer flexibility. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since November 1999, a hold of 27 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £544,000 sits 321.7% above the 1999 sale of £129,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£110/sq ft) was about 60.9% below the postcode norm. 2 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 81% of similar EPCs).
