Overview

About 8 Crofts Path

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

8 Crofts Path is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Hemel Hempstead (HP3 8HB). It has a recorded floor area of 113 m² (around 1214 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (June 2011) shows an E (score 52), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 72), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from June 2011, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Today's modelled estimate of £528,000 sits 82.1% above the 2012 sale of £290,000. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2012.

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 8 Crofts Path is modelled from its 113 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in HP3 8HB. 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 8 Crofts Path. 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 8 Crofts Path was lodged in June 2011 at band E and expired in June 2021, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 8 Crofts Path. 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 24 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HP3 8HB, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
8 Crofts Path is in council tax band E. 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.
