About 15 Blackford Road
A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.
15 Blackford Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD19 6YW). It has a recorded floor area of 89 m² (around 955 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2009) shows a D (score 57), a step below the typical UK home. The latest certificate is from July 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.
Held since March 1999 — that's 27 years off the open market, well above the local norm. Only one transfer is on record with HM Land Registry, suggesting it has stayed in the same hands for a long time. Today's modelled estimate of £423,000 sits 352.4% above the 1999 sale of £93,500. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£98/sq ft) was about 75.2% below the postcode norm. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2018. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
