About 145a

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

145a is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD17 1NA). It has a recorded floor area of 86 m² (around 926 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band B. Other recorded features include a loft. The latest certificate (February 2019) shows a C (score 70).
