About Home Close

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

Home Close is a semi-detached house in Chenies, Rickmansworth, Rickmansworth (WD3 6EQ). It has a recorded floor area of 42 m² (around 452 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (November 2012) shows an F (score 36), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 74), a 3-band jump. The latest certificate is from November 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
