About 1 Ashton House
1 Ashton House is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Waltham Cross (EN8 7HJ). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. At 53 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 37–65 m². On EPC score it ranks last in the building (69 versus a best of 76). The latest certificate (November 2019) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since September 2009. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average.
It hasn't traded since December 2009, a hold of 16 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 £252,000 sits 56.5% above the 2009 sale of £161,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£282/sq ft) was about 19.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. At 53 m² it sits well below the postcode median (79 m² across 29 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
