34a, Liverpool Road, Watford, WD18 0DN
About 34a
34a is a mid-terrace house in Watford (WD18 0DN). It has a recorded floor area of 105 m² (around 1133 sq ft) and construction records dating it to before 1900. The latest certificate (November 2008) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from November 2008, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since February 2009 — that's 17 years off the open market, well above the local norm. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. At 105 m² the property is well over the postcode median (74 m² across 44 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2000–2009, sale prices on this property compounded at 6.5% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £404,000 sits 112.6% above the 2009 sale of £190,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£168/sq ft) was about 22.5% below the postcode norm.
