54a, Lilian Road, Merton, London, SW16 5HN
About 54a
54a is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Merton, London, London (SW16 5HN). It has a recorded floor area of 49 m² (around 527 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band B. At 49 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (49–111 m²). The building's EPC ratings span F to C across 24 units on file. The latest certificate (April 2013) shows an E (score 54), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 76), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from April 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 49 m² it sits well below the postcode median (81 m² across 23 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £354,000 is 48.7% above the 2015 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£451/sq ft) was about 56.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in March 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.
