About 23 Hill View
23 Hill View is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Buckland, Buntingford, Buntingford (SG9 0PX). It has a recorded floor area of 129 m² (around 1389 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 86), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on oil. The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include outbuildings.
It hasn't traded since September 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 129 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 8 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £489,000 sits 127.4% above the 2009 sale of £215,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£155/sq ft) was about 33.3% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 1 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
