Overview

About The Old School House

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

The Old School House is a semi-detached house in Flaunden, Hemel Hempstead, Hemel Hempstead (HP3 0PP). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 972 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (January 2012) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The rating has held steady at F across 2 certificates since January 2012. The latest certificate is from January 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Held since December 1997 — that's 29 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £701,000 sits 159.6% above the 1997 sale of £270,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£278/sq ft) was about 37.3% below the postcode norm. At 90 m² it sits well below the postcode median (138 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 86% of similar EPCs). 4 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.

Where sold prices come from
