About 17 Herbert Road
17 Herbert Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Waltham Forest, London, London (E17 8DY). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 850 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2015) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 88). The latest certificate is from August 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
Held since October 1995 — that's 31 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £524,000 sits 1147.6% above the 1995 sale of £42,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£49/sq ft) was about 71.4% below the postcode norm.
