About 8 Aston View
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
8 Aston View is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Hemel Hempstead (HP2 7NY). It has a recorded floor area of 50 m² (around 538 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. The latest certificate (May 2018) shows an E (score 48), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in November 2008 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 77), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. At 50 m² this is the 17th smallest of 34 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 20–94 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the bottom.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in April 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Across 1998–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 12% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £188,000 sits 50.5% above the 2007 sale of £124,950. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 82% of similar EPCs).

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 8 Aston View is modelled from its 50 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HP2 7NY. 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. 2 sales are recorded for 8 Aston View. 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 8 Aston View was lodged in May 2018 at band E and is valid until May 2028. 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 8 Aston View. 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 15 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 12 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP2 7NY, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 8 Aston View 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.
