EPC Assessor in Regent's Park (North), London
NW1 · London Borough of Camden · nearest station Camden Town (Northern line) or Great Portland Street (Circle, H&C & Metropolitan lines) · North West Inner Belt
On the Camden side of the park — as distinct from the Bakerloo-line stretch further south and west — the streets nearest to us are Park Village East and West and the Nash terraces around Gloucester Gate. John Nash and his protégé James Pennethorne laid out Park Village in the 1820s on a seven-acre former Crown site, mixing stuccoed villas in Gothic, Italianate and Tudor styles either side of what was originally a canal arm. Gloucester Gate itself, completed in 1827 by the builder Richard Mott, is a Grade I listed terrace whose past residents include the pharmaceutical entrepreneur Sir Henry Wellcome — the kind of grand, heavily-converted period property where an EPC assessment has to look past a uniform stucco façade to what’s actually been done behind it, flat by flat.
What is an EPC?
A domestic Energy Performance Certificate is a legal requirement when selling or letting a home in England and Wales. It rates the property’s energy efficiency from A (most efficient) to G (least efficient), and is valid for 10 years.
The 2030 rental deadline
From 1 October 2030, all privately rented homes must reach at least band C under the government’s Warm Homes Plan. If your current certificate is below a C — or has expired — it’s worth checking where you stand well before then.
