Overview

About Basement Flat

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

Basement Flat is a mid-terrace house in London (SW16 5JZ). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (April 2019) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 4 certificates since March 2009. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good.

It hasn't traded since November 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. Across 1999–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £331,000 sits 120.7% above the 2008 sale of £149,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£191/sq ft) was about 53.5% below the postcode norm. At 73 m² it's 28.1% larger than the typical home in the postcode (57 m² median across 32 EPCs).
