Overview

About 121 Balmoral Road

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

121 Balmoral Road is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 4EX). It has a recorded floor area of 137 m² (around 1476 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1950-1966 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (February 2010) shows an E (score 53), well below the UK norm with real room to improve. The recommended improvements would lift it to C (score 70), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from February 2010, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

It hasn't traded since October 2010, a hold of 16 years that's notably long for the area. At 137 m² it's 23.6% larger than the typical home in the postcode (111 m² median across 5 EPCs). On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. Today's modelled estimate of £508,000 sits 54% above the 2010 sale of £329,950. One planning record on file: a loft conversion approved in 2023. Past consents include a loft conversion, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved.
