Overview

About 1 Byron Avenue

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

1 Byron Avenue is a three-bedroom semi-detached house in Watford (WD24 4HT). It has a recorded floor area of 80 m² (around 861 sq ft), construction records dating it to 1930-1949 and council tax band D. The latest certificate (May 2013) shows a D (score 58), a step below the typical UK home. The recommended improvements would lift it to B (score 87), a 2-band jump. The latest certificate is from May 2013, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

5 planning records sit against the property, 0 approved, 2 refused, 1 pending. An active application for an extension is awaiting a decision. At 80 m² it's 24% larger than the typical home in the postcode (65 m² median across 12 EPCs). Today's modelled estimate of £489,000 is 46% above the 2013 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£389/sq ft) was about 29.5% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sold in August 2013, so it's been off the market for around 13 years.
