Overview

About 79 Vicarage Road

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

79 Vicarage Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Ware (SG12 7AP). It has a recorded floor area of 88 m² (around 950 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2009) shows a C (score 74). The latest certificate is from May 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since September 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. On energy efficiency it sits in the top 10% of properties in this postcode. Across 2005–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.7% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £453,000 sits 56.2% above the 2009 sale of £290,000.
