Overview

About 29 Blairhead Drive

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

29 Blairhead Drive is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD19 7RB). It has a recorded floor area of 76 m² (around 818 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1976-1982 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (February 2016) shows a D (score 63), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. The rating has held steady at D across 2 certificates since April 2010. Between certificates, wall efficiency went from Very Poor to Average and lighting went from Average to Very Good; while roof efficiency dropped from Very Good to Poor and hot-water efficiency dropped from Very Good to Good. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected. The home occupies a cul-de-sac position.

4 planning records sit against the property, 3 approved, 1 refused. Past consents include an extension and a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Across 2007–2016, sale prices on this property compounded at 7.6% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £454,000 is 22% above the 2016 sale price.
