43 Chalk Hill is a four-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD19 4BU). It has a recorded floor area of 101 m² (around 1087 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band E. The latest certificate (January 2013) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80).

Held since September 2007 — that's 19 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 101 m² the property is well over the postcode median (41 m² across 9 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Today's modelled estimate of £585,000 sits 145.8% above the 2007 sale of £238,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£219/sq ft) was about 15.4% below the postcode norm.
