9 The Plashets, Sheering, Bishop's Stortford, CM22 7NN

9 The Plashets is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Bishop's Stortford (CM22 7NN). It has a recorded floor area of 84 m² (around 904 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (October 2014) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since May 2009. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Poor to Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from October 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Held since August 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £348,000 sits 104.8% above the 2009 sale of £169,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£188/sq ft) was about 51.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2011. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
