1a, Farm Field, Watford, WD17 3DF
About 1a
1a is a four-bedroom detached house in Watford (WD17 3DF). It has a recorded floor area of 192 m² (around 2067 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.
At 192 m² the property is well over the postcode median (112 m² across 3 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2020. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £1,384,000 is 15.3% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£581/sq ft) was about 21.3% below the postcode norm. On the market in May 2017 and unlisted since — roughly 9 years.
