About Old Meadows

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

Old Meadows is a four-bedroom detached house in Chorleywood, Rickmansworth, Rickmansworth (WD3 5EL). It has a recorded floor area of 100 m² (around 1076 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (December 2008) shows an F (score 32), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to D (score 55), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from December 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Other recorded features include a conservatory.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in September 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. 7 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 100 m² it's 16.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (120 m² median across 10 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 80% of similar EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £1,321,000 is 41.1% above the 2009 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£870/sq ft) was about 43.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
