About 1 Longmore Close

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

1 Longmore Close is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Maple Cross, Rickmansworth, Rickmansworth (WD3 9SE). It has a recorded floor area of 90 m² (around 969 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2024) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since November 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. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for an extension is awaiting a decision. Today's modelled estimate of £475,000 sits 90% above the 2007 sale of £249,995. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£258/sq ft) was about 26.8% below the postcode norm.
