Overview

About 7 Buchanan Court

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

7 Buchanan Court is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Borehamwood (WD6 5RB). It has a recorded floor area of 107 m² (around 1152 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. Earlier certificates rated it C (November 2008); the latest reading is one band lower. Between certificates, wall efficiency dropped from Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 85), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 107 m² the property is well over the postcode median (67 m² across 10 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2002–2014, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.8% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £450,000 sits 58.4% above the 2014 sale of £284,100. Last sold in January 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years.
