12 Cottage Close, Watford, WD17 3NN

12 Cottage Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Watford (WD17 3NN). It has a recorded floor area of 193 m² (around 2077 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1991-1995 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (May 2016) shows a C (score 71). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 81). The latest certificate is from May 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since December 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. 4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 0 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for tree works is awaiting a decision. Today's modelled estimate of £1,190,000 sits 332.7% above the 1996 sale of £275,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£132/sq ft) was about 74.8% below the postcode norm.
