About 32 Balmoral Road
32 Balmoral Road is a three-bedroom end-of-terrace house in Watford (WD24 4EP). It has a recorded floor area of 91 m² (around 980 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (August 2021) shows a D (score 56), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump. Other recorded features include a conservatory. Period features are noted in the property record.
It hasn't traded since May 2008, a hold of 18 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. Across 2003–2008, sale prices on this property compounded at 10.9% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £496,000 sits 85.8% above the 2008 sale of £267,000. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£273/sq ft) was about 22.9% above the typical sold price in the postcode. One historical planning record sits against the property in 2003.
