About 17 Burley Close
17 Burley Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Merton, London, London (SW16 4QQ). It has a recorded floor area of 106 m² (around 1141 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (December 2023) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
It hasn't traded since June 2008, a hold of 18 years that's notably long for the area. 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 £633,000 sits 111% above the 2008 sale of £300,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£263/sq ft) was about 28.7% below the postcode norm. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 106 m² it's 20.2% larger than the typical home in the postcode (88 m² median across 17 EPCs).
