Overview

About 1 Bruce Grove

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

1 Bruce Grove is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD24 4DZ). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (March 2016) shows a D (score 59), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would push it to C (score 80). The latest certificate is from March 2016, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since February 2007, a hold of 19 years that's notably long for the area. That sale landed at the peak of the pre-credit-crunch market, which is a useful reference point when interpreting the price. At 80 m² the property is well over the postcode median (59 m² across 30 EPCs), placing it in the larger end of the local stock. Across 2006–2007, sale prices on this property compounded at 31.2% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £418,000 sits 87.4% above the 2007 sale of £223,000.
