Flat 1, 7 Ottoman Terrace, Radlett Road, Watford, WD17 2RH

Flat 1 is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD17 2RH). It has a recorded floor area of 38 m² (around 410 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band A. At 38 m² this is the 3rd smallest of 4 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 27–56 m². The building's EPC ratings span E to D, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (April 2010) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from April 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since June 2000, a hold of 26 years that's notably long for the area. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £210,000 sits 200.2% above the 2000 sale of £69,950. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£170/sq ft) was about 32.6% below the postcode norm. At 38 m² it sits well below the postcode median (60 m² across 7 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally.
