10 Caister Close, Hemel Hempstead, HP2 4UQ

10 Caister Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Hemel Hempstead (HP2 4UQ). It has a recorded floor area of 138 m² (around 1485 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (May 2018) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a balcony. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since February 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 138 m² the property is well over the postcode median (105 m² across 13 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1996–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £649,000 sits 102.8% above the 2007 sale of £320,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
