Overview

About 18a

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

18a is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD19 4AE). It has a recorded floor area of 96 m² (around 1033 sq ft) and construction records dating it to 1900-1929. The latest certificate (September 2014) shows a C (score 74). The recommended improvements would push it to B (score 85). The latest certificate is from September 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

At 96 m² it's 28% larger than the typical home in the postcode (75 m² median across 23 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £580,000 is 47.6% above the 2014 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£380/sq ft) was about 48.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in November 2014, so it's been off the market for around 12 years. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2014.
