Overview

About 5 Church Road

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

5 Church Road is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD17 4PY). It has a recorded floor area of 56 m² (around 598 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (September 2010) shows a C (score 72). When first surveyed in October 2009 the rating was E, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, roof efficiency went from Very Poor to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Poor to Good and main heating went from Average to Good; while window efficiency dropped from Good to Average. The latest certificate is from September 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. Period features are noted in the property record.

Today's modelled estimate of £406,000 sits 63.9% above the 2013 sale of £247,780. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£414/sq ft) was about 17.3% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Its energy rating outperforms most of the postcode (better than 80% of similar EPCs). Last sold in June 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
