Overview

About 54 High Ridge Road

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

54 High Ridge Road is a three-bedroom detached house in Hemel Hempstead (HP3 0AU). It has a recorded floor area of 97 m² (around 1044 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2026) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Poor to Very Poor and window efficiency dropped from Average to Poor. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). This certificate was lodged in the last six months, so the rating reflects current condition.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in July 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1996–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £574,000 sits 94.6% above the 2009 sale of £295,000.
