About 40 Church Street
40 Church Street is a five-bedroom semi-detached house in Rickmansworth (WD3 1DJ). It has a recorded floor area of 199 m² (around 2142 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a C (score 73).

Held since September 2008 — that's 18 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. Today's modelled estimate of £1,088,000 sits 67.4% above the 2008 sale of £650,000. 13 planning records sit against the property, 9 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, a porch and new windows, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. The record references listed-building consent, which constrain future alterations. 5 bedrooms is on the larger side for this postcode, where 3 is the typical count.
