About 179 Acton Lane
179 Acton Lane is a semi-detached house in Ealing, London, London (W4 5DA). It has a recorded floor area of 15 m² (around 161 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band E. At 15 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across the building (15–140 m²). The building's EPC ratings span E to B across 19 units on file. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a D (score 62), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (March 2014); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while main heating dropped from Average to Poor. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Across 2009–2019, sale prices on this property compounded at 17.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £693,000 is 72.3% below the 2019 sale of £2,500,000, an unusual pattern given regional price growth and worth checking against the EPC condition. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£15,484/sq ft) was about 3803% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 15 m² it sits well below the postcode median (65 m² across 40 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. 5 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include HMO conversion, an extension and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Most recent transfer: July 2019 at £2,500,000.
