Overview

About 4c

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

4c is a two-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD17 2QT). It has a recorded floor area of 59 m² (around 635 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (August 2019) shows an E (score 47), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. When first surveyed in June 2014 the rating was F, the property has climbed 1 band since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Very Poor to Average, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Poor and lighting went from Good to Very Good.
