Overview

About The Black House

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

The Black House is a detached house in Letton, Hereford, Hereford (HR3 6DT). It has a recorded floor area of 160 m² (around 1722 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (November 2013) shows an E (score 41), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 75), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from November 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Across 2000–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 5.1% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £483,000 is 45.7% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£192/sq ft) was about 21.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

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 The Black House is modelled from its 160 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in HR3 6DT. 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. 2 sales are recorded for The Black House. 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 The Black House was lodged in November 2013 at band E and expired in November 2023, 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 The Black House. 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 12 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 1 school and 7 stops listed are measured in a straight line from HR3 6DT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
The Black House 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.
