About 5 Blenheim Close
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
5 Blenheim Close is a four-bedroom detached house in Watford (WD19 4QN). It has a recorded floor area of 123 m² (around 1324 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band F. The latest certificate (March 2014) shows a D (score 64), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from March 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£412/sq ft) was about 19.4% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last changed hands 12 years ago, in October 2014. At 123 m² it's 19.1% smaller than the typical home in the postcode (152 m² median across 12 EPCs). One historical planning record sits against the property in 2018.
