About 18 Birkdale Road

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

18 Birkdale Road is a detached house in Ealing, London, London (W5 1JZ). It has a recorded floor area of 225 m² (around 2426 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2009) shows an E (score 49), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 64).

At 225 m² the property is well over the postcode median (170 m² across 15 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 73% of similar EPCs). Across 1997–2011, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £1,787,000 is 48.9% above the 2011 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£495/sq ft) was about 18.1% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
