About 4 Digswell Lodge
4 Digswell Lodge is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Welwyn Garden City (AL8 7NU). It has a recorded floor area of 124 m² (around 1335 sq ft) and council tax band F. The latest certificate (January 2009) shows a C (score 80), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from January 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since January 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £692,000 is 48.8% above the 2009 sale price. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2015.
