Overview

About 23 Brookdene Avenue

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

23 Brookdene Avenue is a three-bedroom detached house in Watford (WD19 4LG). It has a recorded floor area of 109 m² (around 1168 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (April 2009) shows an F (score 29), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would push it to E (score 42). The latest certificate is from April 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Untraded for 17 years, with the last transfer in August 2009. That sale fell during the post-crash dip, which often skews comparisons against later neighbouring sales. Today's modelled estimate of £608,000 sits 73.7% above the 2009 sale of £350,000. 3 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 87% of similar EPCs).
