About 2 Ottoman Terrace
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
2 Ottoman Terrace is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD17 2RH). It has a recorded floor area of 60 m² (around 649 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2010) shows an E (score 50), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 67). The latest certificate is from March 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 2 Ottoman Terrace is modelled from its 60 m² EPC floor area, its 2 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WD17 2RH. 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 2 Ottoman Terrace. 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 2 Ottoman Terrace was lodged in March 2010 at band E and expired in March 2020, 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. 2 applications are matched to 2 Ottoman Terrace. 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 2RH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 2 Ottoman Terrace 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.
