Overview

About 53 Kingsland Road

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

53 Kingsland Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hemel Hempstead (HP1 1QD). It has a recorded floor area of 87 m² (around 936 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (November 2015) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £512,000 is 10.1% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£497/sq ft) was about 68.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold June 2021 for £465,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
