Overview

About 17 The Lindens

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

17 The Lindens is a four-bedroom detached house in Hemel Hempstead (HP3 0DD). It has a recorded floor area of 322 m² (around 3466 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (August 2020) shows a C (score 76), near the top of the C band. When first surveyed in December 2008 the rating was D, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good and main heating dropped from Very Good to Good. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record.

It hasn't traded since May 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 322 m² the property is well over the postcode median (166 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £1,282,000 sits 119.1% above the 2007 sale of £585,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£169/sq ft) was about 52.1% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include tree works, an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 The Lindens is modelled from its 322 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HP3 0DD. 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. 1 sale is recorded for 17 The Lindens. 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 17 The Lindens was lodged in August 2020 at band C and is valid until August 2030. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 3 applications are matched to 17 The Lindens. 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 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 15 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP3 0DD, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 The Lindens is in council tax band G. 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.
