28 Grange Close, Watford, WD17 4HQ

28 Grange Close is a five-bedroom detached house in Watford (WD17 4HQ). It has a recorded floor area of 136 m² (around 1464 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1996-2002 and council tax band G. The latest certificate (July 2013) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 76). The latest certificate is from July 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

Held since October 1999 — that's 27 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 £834,000 sits 192.6% above the 1999 sale of £284,995. One planning record on file: tree works approved in 2013. Past consents include tree works, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. At 136 m² it's 18.7% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (167 m² median across 18 EPCs).
