Overview

About 17 Eastfield Avenue

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

17 Eastfield Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 4HH). It has a recorded floor area of 64 m² (around 689 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (July 2018) shows a D (score 65), on the cusp of jumping into the C band. When first surveyed in March 2017 the rating was F, the property has climbed 2 bands since. Between certificates, window efficiency went from Average to Good, hot-water efficiency went from Very Poor to Good and lighting went from Very Poor to Very Good; while wall efficiency dropped from Good to Very Poor. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 84), a 2-band jump.

At 64 m² it sits well below the postcode median (96 m² across 14 EPCs), making it one of the more compact homes locally. One planning record on file: an extension approved in 2017. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £527,000 is 25.5% above the 2017 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£610/sq ft) was about 139.6% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in May 2017, so it's been off the market for around 9 years.

How to read this page

Valuation method in detail
How the estimate is made
The estimate for 17 Eastfield Avenue is modelled from its 64 m² EPC floor area, its 1 recorded sale and recent sales of comparable homes in WD24 4HH. It is an automated estimate, not a survey or mortgage valuation: condition, layout and improvements that aren't on record can move the real figure either way.
Where sold prices come from
Sold prices are HM Land Registry Price Paid Data, which covers residential sales in England and Wales since 1995. 1 sale is recorded for 17 Eastfield Avenue. Sales normally appear two to three months after completion, so the most recent ones take time to show up anywhere.
Reading the EPC
Energy Performance Certificates rate homes from A (most efficient) to G and last 10 years. The latest one for 17 Eastfield Avenue was lodged in July 2018 at band D and is valid until July 2028. 2 certificates are on record, which shows how the home has changed.
Planning records
Planning applications are collected from local authority registers through PlanIt. 1 application is matched to 17 Eastfield Avenue. Councils sometimes file applications under a different address format, and applications on neighbouring land aren't listed here; the report covers both.
Area figures
Crime is police-recorded street-level data over the last 16 months, which places each incident at an approximate point. The 33 schools and 30 stops listed are measured in a straight line from WD24 4HH, not by walking route. Road noise is Defra's strategic noise modelling, averaged across the postcode.
Council tax band
17 Eastfield Avenue is in council tax band D. Bands are set by the Valuation Office Agency from historic values (1 April 1991 in England, 1 April 2003 in Wales), not today's price; the amount you pay depends on the council's rate for the band.
