6 Orchard Close, Watford, WD17 3DU

6 Orchard Close is a four-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD17 3DU). It has a recorded floor area of 125 m² (around 1345 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2016) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 79). The latest certificate is from April 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history.

Held since March 1996 — that's 30 years off the open market, well above the local norm. 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 £857,000 sits 593.9% above the 1996 sale of £123,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£92/sq ft) was about 77.6% below the postcode norm. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 125 m² it's 22% larger than the typical home in the postcode (103 m² median across 16 EPCs).
