About 17 Burghley Avenue
17 Burghley Avenue is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Borehamwood (WD6 2JG). It has a recorded floor area of 73 m² (around 786 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a G (score 12), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 39), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on to be used only when there is no heating/hot. The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
At 73 m² it's 22.3% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (94 m² median across 7 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £445,000 is 22.8% above the 2016 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£461/sq ft) was about 145.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in July 2016, so it's been off the market for around 10 years.
