About 3 Bucklands
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
3 Bucklands is a one-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD19 5DT). It has a recorded floor area of 51 m² (around 551 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1967-1975 and council tax band C. At 51 m² this is the 8th smallest of 10 units on EPC record in the building, where floor areas span 45–52 m². The building's EPC ratings span D to C, with this unit at the top. The latest certificate (August 2010) shows a C (score 69), just inside the C band. The latest certificate is from August 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Last sold in April 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. Across 1999–2017, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.7% per year. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£517/sq ft) was about 68.7% above the typical sold price in the postcode.

Start your researchHow to read this page
Where every figure above comes from, how current it is and what it can't tell you.
- How the estimate is made
- The estimate for 3 Bucklands is modelled from its 51 m² EPC floor area, its 4 recorded sales and recent sales of comparable homes in WD19 5DT. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
- Where sold prices come from
- Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 4 sales are recorded for 3 Bucklands. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
- Reading the EPC
- Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 3 Bucklands was lodged in August 2010 at band C and expired in August 2020, so a new one is needed to sell or let. Floor area, heating and insulation details on this page come from it.
- Planning records
- Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. None is matched to 3 Bucklands. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
- Area figures
- Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 13 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 27 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD19 5DT, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
- Council tax band
- 3 Bucklands is in council tax band C. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
