Overview

About 8 Forest Road

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

8 Forest Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Cheshunt, Waltham Cross, Waltham Cross (EN8 9DB). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2024) shows a D (score 61), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since January 2014. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency dropped from Good to Average and lighting dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 2-band jump.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in July 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 2003–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £438,000 sits 86.4% above the 2007 sale of £234,995. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2010. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
