Overview

About 3 Balmoral Road

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

3 Balmoral Road is a three-bedroom mid-terrace house in Watford (WD24 4ER). It has a recorded floor area of 98 m² (around 1055 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1900-1929 and council tax band C. The latest certificate (July 2014) shows an E (score 51), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 79), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from July 2014, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

Last sale on file: £407,500 in April 2021. Across the public record there are 4 sales, relatively high churn for a single property. That sale was during the post-pandemic price surge, when transactions cleared materially above pre-2020 trend. At 98 m² it's 19.5% larger than the typical home in the postcode (82 m² median across 6 EPCs). It lags the bulk of the postcode on energy efficiency (less efficient than 83% of similar EPCs). Across 1996–2021, sale prices on this property compounded at 8.3% per year. Today's modelled estimate of £454,000 is 11.4% above the 2021 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£386/sq ft) was about 58.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode.
