Overview

About 12 Greenfield Avenue

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

12 Greenfield Avenue is a two-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD19 5DN). It has a recorded floor area of 77 m² (around 829 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band E. The property has solar panels on record, all of which lower running costs and tend to lift resale appeal. Records show the property has been extended at some point in its history. The latest certificate (December 2013) shows a D (score 66), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. Earlier certificates rated it C (November 2013); the latest reading is one band lower. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 69). Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from December 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

4 planning records sit against the property, 2 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include a loft conversion and an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2004–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 4.4% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £531,000 is 11.8% above the 2021 sale price.

That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend.
