About 39 Barham Avenue

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

39 Barham Avenue is a six-bedroom detached house in Elstree, Borehamwood, Borehamwood (WD6 3PW). It has a recorded floor area of 662 m² (around 7130 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band H. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69).

Today's modelled estimate of £2,735,000 is 24% below the 2011 sale of £3,600,000, running counter to the wider postcode trend, which makes the EPC and condition history especially worth a look. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£505/sq ft) was about 33.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. It hasn't traded since January 2011, a hold of 15 years that's notably long for the area.
