How the estimate is made

The estimate for 2a is modelled from its 108 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP1 3QR. 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.

Overview

About 2a

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

2a is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hemel Hempstead (HP1 3QR). It has a recorded floor area of 108 m² (around 1163 sq ft). The latest certificate (March 2019) shows a C (score 75), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

At 108 m² the property is well over the postcode median (83 m² across 11 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: subdivision approved in 2018. Past consents include subdivision, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 1996–2022, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.3% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£374/sq ft) was about 31% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Sold October 2022 for £435,000. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.

Method

How to read this page

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 2a is modelled from its 108 m² EPC floor area, its 3 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP1 3QR. 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. 3 sales are recorded for 2a. 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 2a was lodged in March 2019 at band C and is valid until March 2029. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 2a. 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 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP1 3QR, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
