Overview

About 2c

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

2c is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD17 1QU). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 411 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band B. At 38 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 28 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 36–306 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (87 m² across 27 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 85% of similar EPCs). Across 2007–2015, sale prices on this property compounded at 3.1% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£552/sq ft) was about 145.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in September 2015, so it's been off the market for around 11 years.

Method

How to read this page

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 2c is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WD17 1QU. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 2 sales are recorded for 2c. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 2c was lodged in June 2009 at band C and expired in June 2019, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 2c. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 14 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 37 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD17 1QU, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
2c is in council tax band B. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
