Overview

About Sutton Court

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

Sutton Court is a one-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD17 2QQ). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 409 sq ft), construction records dating it to 2012 onwards and council tax band C. At 38 m² this is the smallest unit on EPC record across Sutton Court (38–57 m²). The building's EPC ratings span C to B, with this unit at the bottom. The latest certificate (November 2021) shows a C (score 77), near the top of the C band. The rating has held steady at C across 2 certificates since October 2011. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Good to Very Good; while window efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good.

At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (58 m² across 33 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. Today's modelled estimate of £227,000 is 37.6% above the 2012 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£403/sq ft) was about 37.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in April 2012, so it's been off the market for around 14 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 Sutton Court is modelled from its 38 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WD17 2QQ. 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. 1 sale is recorded for Sutton Court. 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 Sutton Court was lodged in November 2021 at band C and is valid until November 2031. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to Sutton Court. 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 36 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD17 2QQ, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
Sutton Court is in council tax band C. 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.
