Overview

About 5 The Mead

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

5 The Mead is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD19 5BY). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1983-1990 and council tax band D. Tenure is freehold. The latest certificate (February 2012) shows a D (score 67), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 71). The latest certificate is from February 2012, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
