About 2 Counters Close
2 Counters Close is a three-bedroom detached house in Hemel Hempstead (HP1 1SE). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1173 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2014) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since August 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £583,000 sits 53.4% above the 2007 sale of £379,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£324/sq ft) was about 33.3% below the postcode norm.
