Overview

About 68 West Valley Road

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

68 West Valley Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hemel Hempstead (HP3 0AW). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (October 2013) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from October 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2015. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Last sold in December 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. Today's modelled estimate of £495,000 is 41.4% above the 2014 sale price.
