How the estimate is made
The estimate for 19a is modelled from its 22 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HP1 2QG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.

About 19a
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
19a is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hemel Hempstead (HP1 2QG). It has a recorded floor area of 22 m² (around 237 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (December 2025) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. Earlier certificates rated it D (July 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 82), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot.
Untraded for 29 years, with the last transfer in September 1997. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. At 22 m² it sits well below the postcode median (80 m² across 18 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 1 bedrooms is on the smaller side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 19a is modelled from its 22 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HP1 2QG. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 19a. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 19a was lodged in December 2025 at band E and is valid until December 2035. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 19a. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 22 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP1 2QG, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 19a is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
