About 21 West Valley Road

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

21 West Valley Road is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Hemel Hempstead (HP3 0AN). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (August 2012) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 81), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from August 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record.

Today's modelled estimate of £578,000 sits 77.8% above the 2013 sale of £325,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£315/sq ft) was about 18.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, an extension and partial demolition, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 74% of similar EPCs). On the market in January 2013 and unlisted since — roughly 13 years.
