Overview

About 7 Arden Close

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

7 Arden Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Bovingdon, Hemel Hempstead, Hemel Hempstead (HP3 0QS). It has a recorded floor area of 133 m² (around 1432 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (July 2012) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 83), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since July 2006, a hold of 20 years that's notably long for the area. Today's modelled estimate of £693,000 sits 88.3% above the 2006 sale of £368,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£257/sq ft) was about 22.8% below the postcode norm. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 75% of similar EPCs).
