Overview

About 18 Grange Close

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

18 Grange Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Watford (WD17 4HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 148 m² (around 1593 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (March 2015) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 83). The latest certificate is from March 2015, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a corner plot and a cul-de-sac position.

It hasn't traded since June 1998, a hold of 28 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. 7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 1 refused, 1 pending. Past consents include tree works and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. An active application for tree works is awaiting a decision. Today's modelled estimate of £850,000 sits 209.1% above the 1998 sale of £275,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£173/sq ft) was about 23.8% below the postcode norm.
