About 8 Boundary Cottages
8 Boundary Cottages is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Bovingdon, Hemel Hempstead, Hemel Hempstead (HP3 0JT). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 659 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 68). The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include notable views and a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy.
Untraded for 19 years, with the last transfer in August 2007. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. Today's modelled estimate of £412,000 sits 68.2% above the 2007 sale of £245,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£372/sq ft) was about 43% above the typical sold price in the postcode. 5 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs).
