Overview

About 11 Bencroft Road

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

11 Bencroft Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Hemel Hempstead (HP2 5UX). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 603 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2014) shows a D (score 68), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to A (score 93), a 3-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from January 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in January 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1995–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 9.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £330,000 sits 76.5% above the 2007 sale of £187,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£310/sq ft) was about 44.8% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a conservatory, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
