About 8 Bowlers Mead
8 Bowlers Mead is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Buntingford (SG9 9DE). It has a recorded floor area of 190 m² (around 2045 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (September 2015) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from September 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since July 2001 — that's 25 years off the open market, well above the local norm. At 190 m² the property is well over the postcode median (100 m² across 17 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 1998–2001, sale prices on this property compounded at 14.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £611,000 sits 213.3% above the 2001 sale of £195,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£95/sq ft) was about 60.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2019. Past consents include an extension and a porch, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
