About 39 High Street
39 High Street is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Rickmansworth (WD3 1ET). It has a recorded floor area of 53 m² (around 570 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (January 2020) shows a C (score 70). When first surveyed in June 2009 the rating was F, the property has climbed 3 bands since. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good. The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since June 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. Today's modelled estimate of £366,000 sits 154.2% above the 2009 sale of £144,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£252/sq ft) was about 35.8% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 53 m² it's 18.5% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 5 EPCs).
