About 1 Neal Street
1 Neal Street is an end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD18 0AX). It has a recorded floor area of 79 m² (around 856 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (June 2009) shows an E (score 44), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would push it to D (score 57). The latest certificate is from June 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
It hasn't traded since November 2009, a hold of 17 years that's notably long for the area. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Across 1995–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £419,000 sits 74.6% above the 2009 sale of £239,950. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 88% of similar EPCs).
